Law of the Dragon

The next day, Eros yawned, and brought Duke Sacre and Captain Hasen back to the imperial capital from the magic circle on the edge of the Valley of Elves early in the morning.

Gabriel was going to see him off early, but Eros declined. Gabriel's younger brother didn't see him, and he was probably still learning the common language of the mainland.Although the elves have a lot of language talent, it is still unrealistic to master a language in seven or eight days, which makes these people escape temporarily. Poor Hasen doesn't know that he has been given the heavy responsibility of "taking care of children".

As for Il, Eros didn't see it. He squatted in the garden until midnight yesterday, the girl left with a disappointed face, and he went back to sleep for a while.

The speed of the magic circle is much faster than that of a dragon flying with its wings. The fifteen-day journey took only a blink of an eye, and they returned to the dusty room of the chancellor's house.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer was actually sleeping on the floor in this room. When he saw Eros, he jumped up excitedly. He was even more surprised when he saw the pile of things at Eros' feet.

"Is this a specialty product?" the chancellor asked curiously.

Eros threw a huge sack as tall as a person to him: "No, it's a loan from the elves."

"Foreclosed goods?" The Chancellor opened the sack in confusion, and was immediately blinded by the gems in the sack, "So many!"

"Yes," Eros raised the contract in his hand, "they should pay back the debt of [-] million gold coins!"

After Hasen told the Chancellor of the Exchequer what they experienced in the Valley of the Elves, he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.

"God of Light!" He praised the God of Light loudly. He was so excited that he almost lost his breath. With his withered and emaciated body, he forcibly picked up a large bag of gems and prepared to put it into the treasury trembling slightly.

"Why didn't he praise me?" Although Eros was a little dissatisfied, he still directed Hasen to help the Minister of Finance carry the sack, and took out the gold note of [-] gold coins, and handed it to the Minister of Finance, letting him put it in the treasury— — and what place is safer and more secure than the treasury?Eros comforted himself that this was only a temporary loan, and sooner or later he would evacuate the entire treasury, otherwise he would really dare not put such a large sum of money in his room.

Looking sadly at the gold coins and gems going away, Eros felt empty in his heart, and felt that he was not well!Said that he wanted to go back to sleep, but Duke Sacre grabbed him: "I haven't been back for several days, so hurry up and see what's going on in the imperial capital."

Eros looked disinterested, what could be the case, if there is any case, the Minister of Finance had already said it!

Sa Keluo disagreed, thinking that the Chancellor of the Exchequer was particularly "open to money" just now, and probably even if there was something, he would have forgotten it, probably even his own surname.In fact, Sa Keluo didn't think that Eros was going to rest. In all likelihood, he was going back to count the gold coins in the small treasure chest.After all, he is a dragon, and he has never heard of being tired if he doesn't sleep for a day. When he made a contract with Lim a few days ago, he didn't sleep for three days, but he was still in good spirits.

Eros had no choice but to be dragged by Sa Keluo to the main hall of the palace. Unexpectedly, the people in the palace were deserted. It is estimated that His Majesty the King was on a business trip, and these people were happy to relax.

Eros said on the side, if I knew it earlier, I would come back tomorrow, wouldn't this delay him from counting the money!

After a while, Embo came in a hurry and saw Eros sitting on the throne, hesitating for a long time, as if he didn't know how to speak.

"Just tell me what you want, I'm going back to sleep!" Eros yawned on the throne, while Thakro stood beside him. They had left the imperial capital for almost a week.Although the time is not long, it is indeed a good time for some people with ulterior motives. Although it may not be obvious from the surface, there will be some traces.This was what he told En Bo to pay special attention to, and it was also the reason why he rushed over to "handle political affairs" as soon as he returned from the Valley of Elves.

"General Yarrow is back..." En Bo hadn't finished speaking when a slim figure appeared at the end of the hall.

Eros has never met Yarrow, but according to the official history of the palace, General Yarrow is at least 50 years old. What kind of concept is 50 years old to human beings? Eros has already understood through the Chancellor of the Exchequer very clearly, but the woman walking on the scarlet carpet has nothing to do with 50 years old.

She looks about eleven or twelve years old. She has long flame-like red hair that is rarely seen in humans. She has a beautiful appearance, ruby ​​eyes shining bright and tough, and uncompromising arrogance. She is also blood-red. The cloak is fastened on the shoulders by two leaf-shaped buckles on the left and right shoulders, and the simple and neat attire on her body makes it difficult to associate her with the legendary General Yarrow.

General Yarrow is actually a woman!This was something Eros never thought of, and what made Eros even more unexpected was that he had seen this woman before. When he turned into Jackie Chan to inspect the flood in the third district, this woman was standing close to the river. While looking at him, Eros thought he was just an ordinary traveler before!

In addition to lamenting that the world is unpredictable, I can only lament that the world is really unpredictable!

Sa Keluo was also very surprised. He had a very good relationship with Yarrow and belonged to a close friend relationship, so he didn't even take Yarrow into consideration when arranging the eyeliner.Unexpectedly, this woman arrived at the imperial capital from the western region without making a sound.

"What's going on?" Sa Keluo broke the silence, "The imperial palace has not received any news that you are coming back, and there is no order for you to rush back from the western region."

The red-haired woman named Yarrow looked coldly at the blond boy sitting on the throne that symbolized Hildor's strongest power.Of course she remembered that night too.

The west border is located on the edge of the fourth and fifth districts. If you come back from the west border, you will not pass through the third district. words) found out, so Yarrow made a big detour to the third district.This journey took a lot of time, so when she arrived at the imperial capital, His Majesty the new king had already gone to the Valley of Elves, so she had to wait for them to come back in the palace.

Yarrow stood at the foot of the steps leading to the throne, and glanced at the main hall. There were only four of them here, not even guards.

"Very well," Yarrow's voice was low and crisp.

Eros just wanted to ask her what is "good"?

But she decisively pulled out the long knife she was wearing from the scabbard, rushed forward, and slashed at her head!Her movements are resolute and decisive, without any femininity and softness, and she looks more powerful than a man. The thick knife reflects the cold light and cuts towards her head. The posture is like cutting herself in half. Not over!

Eros could almost smell the blood coming from above!This woman must have killed a lot of people—well, maybe the range of races is a bit wider, chickens and ducks, and now I have to add a dragon!

Those ruby ​​eyes stared at him closely, that kind of determination and persistence definitely regarded him as the murderer of his father and enemy!

Facts have proved that it is impossible for the dragon slayer to succeed in this situation.

"Saklo!" he shouted, subconsciously leaning towards the man, this is the only person he can rely on now.

The loud sound of metal impact was right next to his ears, making Eros slightly tinnitus.He opened his eyes cautiously, and the cold metallic breath was against the tip of his nose. In front of him were two intersecting weapons—Saklo's sword and Yarrow's knife.

"I want to kill the false king," Yarrow said coldly, pressing the blade down.

"He is the real king." Sa Keluo's voice was even colder.

Yarrow's eyes narrowed, and the red eyes showed murderous intent: "You don't have to play tricks with me, I don't know where you found him as a fake, but he is not qualified to sit in the position of the real king! "

Sa Keluo remained silent with a cold face, and raised his sword, forcing the opponent to sideways to avoid it, allowing Eros to narrowly avoid the blade.

Eros was absent-minded for a while, he felt his heart was beating so fast, it had never been so fast in thousands of years, and the sense of loss of strength in escaping from death made his vision a little blurred.

He couldn't help but look up at Sa Keluo, the side of the other side looked cold and resolute, but silently protected him behind him.

This is the feeling of being a human being, Eros thought, a human being who has no strength and must rely on a powerful existence to survive.It feels good to give the other party trust and be saved because of it, but—this is not what the Dragon Clan should do.This is the human survival mode, not the dragon's.

En Bo, who stayed aside, was already petrified when he saw this scene.He didn't have the guts to go up to try to persuade a fight - he felt dizzy looking at those swords and swords, and he was not born as a military officer, he might get sick if the sword wind blows, needless to say, to separate the two military officers holding sharp weapons; according to reason, he should use The body went to block the sword for the king. Although he lived almost the same age as the Chancellor of the Exchequer, it didn't mean that he didn't want to continue living.

So, after thinking about it for a while, he screamed and passed out simply!

However, the fact that he passed out didn't alarm anyone, only Yarrow glanced at him, and seemed to think that this was what Embo did.

"Open the skylight and tell the truth, can you do me a favor and walk away," Yarrow said coldly, holding on to the knife, "They said you were going to usurp the throne, I guess you are not that boring, but maybe I was wrong. "

"I'm really not that bored." Sa Keluo put away the long sword at this moment, and separated the opponent's knife with his fingers, "Can you stop swinging the knife in front of me? This is a duel ?"

Yarrow put away the knife very simply, stared at Thakro and said: "I will not refuse any duel, but we have to settle this matter first, who is this guy? Why is he on the throne! He Not even ordinary human beings!" She can still recall that extremely silent night, when the river was filled with death and hunger, and this young man stood under the crescent moon, smiling like a psychopath, and his golden eyes were full of tears. Calculating and crazy!

How could such a person be the true king of Hildor!
