Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 78 Doubt
In the secret room on the third floor of Prince Long's manor, Alagir was reporting the situation to the prince.

"Prince, after Finnuba strictly investigated the handicap, our recovery of funds has been hindered, and now we only got 60 gold leaves."

The prince standing in front of the window was looking at the distance of the manor. In the distance was the garrison of Lothern. With his extraordinary eyesight, he could even see a few eagle claw ballistas behind the garrison.

The Dragon Prince and Dragon Ji guards stood inside and outside the manor, and no one was allowed to enter unless ordered by the prince. Minasnil and Lighthamir were staying in the open space of the training ground.

After waiting for a long time in Aguilar, the prince finally said, "Use the identity of the embassy to suppress it, and the Dragon Palace cannot show that it is participating in the handicap."

Ambassador Caledor Aguilar's face darkened. He knew that the prince was planning to give up the affairs of Lothern directly. Although the embassy was the representative of the kingdom in the Phoenix court, it had a certain degree of autonomy. The prince needed someone Come pick up the dirty work.

He had some doubts, because he had hidden the previous incident in his heart for a long time, but right now it was only him and the prince, and he finally couldn't help asking, "You should know that as long as nothing happened in the situation at that time, we were still making a profit." Or, if you do this, we will not be able to participate in the later handicap."

"Politically, the garrison of troops in the Lothern Strait will completely lose Caledor's influence in the Phoenix Royal Court, and even lead to a blockade. Even if the money is obtained, it will be of no use."

When talking, Aguilar's tone was a little excited. He loved Caledor deeply, so he didn't want to affect the silent kingdom because of some situations that could have been regarded as nothing happened.

After listening to Aguilar's question, Imrik turned to look at him, instead of being angry because of his offensive tone, he was very calm, "Yes, I know, but Aguilar, if this matter Passed back to Caledor, a dragon prince who has experienced many battles and has made great achievements in battles, instinctively won the victory without any pressure."

"But he was seriously injured because of his despicable behavior. What do you think Caledon will think? The bond that connects each of us will be broken. As a prince, I will never allow this to happen."

"Besides, you may have stayed in Lothern for too long, forgetting why Caledor can maintain such a status in Ulthuan. What we need are giant dragons, dragon princes, Vaal priests, flame towers, and Every citizen is an honor, but definitely not the Phoenix Royal Court."

The Dragon Prince turned and continued to look out the window, and finally gave Alagir an order.

"Notify Maslow to go to the competition."

Since the news of the previous two days, after seeing through the magic image that Bruni was cheated so despicably, he was able to defeat eight silver-helmed knights.

Regardless of whether it is a horse battle in an individual competition or a team competition, all fighters with a sense of honor choose to quit. This is a resistance to the shameless. Only Bruni is worthy of this championship. Now there are only a few nobles from Lothern Charge across an empty playing field, informed by your family.

In desperation, Aguilar withdrew. He knew what the prince was thinking. Caledor's silence made these people think that they could trample on honor at will, but as a politician, he knew the consequences of doing so.

Although the previous Dragon Prince had a tendency to force the palace, he never stationed a large army in Lothern and made a move to besiege the Phoenix Royal Court. This would cause Caledor to be blocked or even oppressed.

Just the honor of a soldier, he thought of Bruni, the dragon prince who fought alone, and thought of him still lying on the bed, he could only sigh helplessly in his heart, "For the glory of Caledon, ?"

After Aragir told Masno to participate in the competition, he rode out with Agthel, and the two of them wore a full set of dragon armor and dragon armor, and came to the defenders of Lothern.

Masnow did not back down at all because of the disparity in the number of people. Instead, he raised his head, looked at the soldiers with nervous expressions, and angrily said, "Go away, you cowards."

Agsel, on the other hand, did not speak by his side. He knew many people in the Phoenix Court, and his experience as the dragon gatekeeper over the years made him not as proud as the dragon prince in Caledon.

But the general of the defenders still recognized Agsel, picked up his spear and shield and walked forward, emphasizing the identity of the dragon prince in front of him, "Prince Agsel, your order of battle belongs to the Phoenix Court."

"I have already resigned from my position as the general of the Dragon Gate. Caledonian will not fight under someone who has no honor." Agthel answered this question directly, and turned to look at a familiar figure.

"Let them pass." At this time, Tyrion stood up. Although he and Finnubar were good friends, as a warrior, he was extremely angry when he saw a duel being so tainted.

The two people in front of them were going to participate in the competition, not hostile. From a legal point of view, Caledon had not yet declared war on the Phoenix Royal Court, and they had no right to prevent the free activities of the two nobles.

At this time, Agthel looked at Tyrion, he knew this famous descendant of Aenarion, "Tyrion, you are a brave man, and the dragon trainer is not the same as the descendant of Aenarion. The ancient covenant should be violated because of these cowards, Malekith betrayed Asur, I hope you will not sully the name of the guardian of the ancestors."

After finishing speaking, he rode his horse and rushed to the competition venue, regardless of Tyrion's ugly face and his arm with bulging veins holding the Yangyan Sword.

……

After arriving at the arena, the referees looked at the two men wearing dragon armor with embarrassment, while the Irisians on the other side were also wearing their silver armor, and they didn't care about the rules of the tournament at all.

Sighing, as a Tyranokian, he also knows why. Since yesterday, there have been contestants wearing self-wearing equipment. Although they didn't explain the reason, everyone knows.

Although all those people were replaced with competition equipment because of the forced intervention of the White Lion Guards, the few in front of them didn't care who the White Lion Guards were.

And this game is the second time after Bruni, Caledo played again. If he is not handled well as a referee, he will not be able to please the Phoenix Court and the two countries. He thought to himself, "Damn Finnuba, When this matter is over, I will resign from all positions in Lothern and return to Terrenlock."

Then he looked at the people on both sides. Iris was accompanied by Eltharion, and Caledo was Agthel, "Both are wise people, and I will not limit the equipment of the two fighters, but I hope that the There will be danger to life.”

"can."

"of course."

And in a manor, Davian and Alfonso walked side by side with two long swords hanging from their waists. The former chief magic swordsman kept saying, "What's so good about this tournament? If you want weapons, I'll go back to the White Tower of Hess and find some for you, they are definitely no worse than those forged by Vaal's anvil."

"Teacher, before I was your student, I was a Caledonian. If I quit like this, my family will be ashamed, and I won't even be able to hold my head up anywhere. Even if you can protect me for a while, but I I will eventually return to Caledor to inherit the legacy of my ancestors."

At this time, Davian looked at Alfonso seriously. Since the past two days, Alfonso has used his influence in Savory to deal with the conflicts between several kingdoms.

Although Davian's personality was out of character, he knew that Alfonso did this for him. Otherwise, as the God of Hoth, even the conspiracy of the Phoenix King's election would not fall on him.

There was some relief in Alfonso's brows and eyes, but more helplessness. These stone-headed heads don't know how to be flexible when they make a promise. You alone are irrelevant to the overall situation. I wish, but after becoming his student, I also earnestly and sincerely studied those art theories, even the book "The Principle of the Wind of Magic", which claims to be able to kill people with weight, has been reading for a whole day. As for his talent, Ah Fonso felt that Caledo was really blind.

"After this competition is over, follow me to the White Tower of Hess, and I will try my best to help your prince deal with this matter."

A look of joy appeared on Davian's face. He already knew how powerful the person in front of him who he thought was an old rascal at first glance. As the God of Hoth, he could even serve as the supreme wizard and chief magic swordsman without any objection. The Dragon Prince bowed his head to outsiders for the first time, "Thank you, teacher."
