The strongest fire master

Chapter 27 Prelude to the War
His acquaintance with Kou Li was just an episode in the campus life, and apart from practicing imperial arts and having more people to talk to on campus, it didn't seem to have had much impact on his life.

At this time, Kahn was reading a book.

This book is called "Illustrated Handbook of Rare and Exotic Beasts", which records all kinds of strange animals in the world.

It is worth mentioning that the author of this book is a certain generation of Avatar, and of course, only Avatar has the power to see rare and exotic beasts all over the world.

This Avatar lived in a relatively peaceful age, and his favorite thing to do usually is to travel and record his experiences.

In addition to "Illustrated Book of Rare and Exotic Beasts", his books also include "Customs of Various Races", "Encyclopedia of World Scenic Spots and Scenic Spots", "Magic Travel Notes", etc. It can be seen that he really loves traveling.

However, the only disadvantage is that the things recorded in this book are at least two or three hundred years old, and the so-called vicissitudes of life, not to mention the destruction of the land by the war of nearly a hundred years, and I don't know what the world looks like today.

Despite this, Kahn is still his loyal reader. He is very yearning for the magical world he describes, and wants to travel in the clouds himself.

But in this war-torn era, it may be difficult to realize this wish.

It has been almost 100 years since the Fire Nation launched war on the whole world. What is shocking is that the Fire Nation has become stronger and stronger during these 100 years. After repeated battles and victories, up to now, the trend of the Fire Nation's victory has become more and more obvious.

If Ai Luo successfully attacked the capital of the Xiatu Kingdom, Yonggu City, then the pace of the Fire Nation's unification of the world was only one step away.

Unfortunately, Ailuo failed and ordered the withdrawal of troops because of the pain of losing his son, which shook the morale of the Fire Nation army and boosted the confidence of the rebels.

And this battle for the throne once again caused the Fire Nation to shrink its front, and also gave the rebels a long time to recuperate.

If things go on like this, if we want to realize real peace, we still don’t know how long it will take until the Year of the Monkey.

Difficult.

Cough, far away.

Having said that, Kahn read the book "Illustrated Book of Rare and Exotic Beasts" this time for his pet dream.

Ever since he learned about magical beasts like the Vulcan Dragon and the Flying Bull last time, Kahn has been dreaming that one day he can own such a pet or mount.

Although he doesn't have the strength to subdue them with his current small arms and legs, it's good to choose now.

Well, a big weasel with a super sense of smell can run fast and can be ridden, but it's a bit ugly, forget it. It's a bit like a sea dragon like a sea king, forget it, it's pretty good looking if you can only live in the sea It's cute, but it has no fighting power. Let's put it on the record
In short, combat effectiveness is secondary, and appearance is the first.It would be even better if there were alien beasts with both good looks and combat effectiveness.

Just as Kahn was choosing his future pet with relish, Ai Luo suddenly walked in from the door.

"Uncle Ai Luo."

After seeing Ai Luo, Kahn put down his book, stood up and said hello, today's study time has started again.

Since Ai Luo was laid off, he has been very free every day. The only thing at hand is to teach Kahn the fire fighting technique, and then drink tea and play chess by himself. It seems that he is gradually adapting to retirement life.

"It's a little late today."

Kahn said.

"There was a delay."

But today's Ai Luo is different from the past. He usually smiles and looks heartless all day long, but now he is a little taciturn.

What happened?
Kahn was puzzled.

But this time during the teaching process, Ai Luo was not only taciturn but also often distracted, as if he was thinking about something.

Finally, Kahn couldn't help asking:

"Uncle Ai Luo, what happened?"

"Um, oh, nothing."

Ai Luo came back to his senses and said with a smile:
"It's just that I may have eaten up my stomach just now, and I feel a little uncomfortable, hahaha!"

Apparently Ai Luo wasn't going to tell him what happened, but wasn't that an excuse too perfunctory?

Kahn pouted, don't tell him if you don't tell him, but this feeling of being underestimated is really uncomfortable.

Let me think, what can happen recently?
What can worry Ai Luo is either the things in the palace, or the things about the whole country, or both. Did Ao Zai do anything?
Thinking of this, Kahn began to recall the pile of ulterior secrets that Azura told him in the recent chat.
!

Suddenly, Kahn asked:
"Are you going to continue fighting again?"

Although he has known Ai Luo, Zuko, and Azura for a long time, the number of times he met Ao Zai is very small, but he knows a lot about Ao Zai.

One of them is that Ao Zai is a radical, militant and very ambitious person, and his ambition is to rule the world.

And now after the battle for the throne, he has finally resolved the internal conflicts, so it is predictable that he chooses to continue the war impatiently.

Hearing what Kahn said, Ai Luo suddenly looked at him in surprise.

Kahn was right, the war was about to start again.

After learning the news today, even though he knew it couldn't be stopped, Ai Luo went to talk to Ao Zai in person.

The result was naturally as he expected, Ao Zai didn't care about his persuasion at all, and insisted on continuing to wage war.

Ai Luo sighed helplessly:

"Yeah, the time of peace is really too short. By the way, how do you know?"

"My guess."

Kahn spread his hands and replied perfunctorily.

Ai Luo choked for a moment, but soon laughed again. Regardless of Kahn's resistance, he rubbed his hair and said:
"Hahaha, the guess is quite accurate, not bad!"

Immediately, he rubbed his belly again and said solemnly:

"But I didn't lie to you about eating a bad stomach. I ran to the toilet three times this morning, and my stomach still feels a little uncomfortable. It really tortured me."

"Hey - who cares if you have a bad stomach."

Kahn moved away from Ai Luo with a look of disgust.

"Hahahaha!"

Ai Luo looked at Kahn's little expression and laughed again.

However, although Kahn didn't say anything, he could probably guess that Azura might have said something to him, and only that girl Azura would be so bold.

After the joke, getting back to the topic again, Ai Luo became a little more serious, and this time he didn't treat Kahn like a child anymore.

He asked Kahn:

"What do you think of war?"

Kahn thought for a while and replied:

"No one likes war. I definitely hope that the world can be peaceful as soon as possible."

He is still waiting to travel around the world to catch treasures and strange beasts when he grows up!

Ailuo nodded in satisfaction when he heard Kahn's words, but Kahn continued:
"So I hope that this time the emperor can quickly unify the world. This has been going on for almost 100 years, and it should be over."

"Unify the world."

Ai Luo repeated, seeming to have some thoughts, and then he asked again:

"Why do you have to invade other countries? Isn't it good to maintain a balanced peace among the four countries like it has been since ancient times?"

Kahn gave him a strange look. This is not like the words of the original Fire Nation prince, the original Fire Nation general who led the army to victories in countless battles, and the man who was feared by the enemy and called the Dragon of the West. .

Aren't you the one with the most fun?
