Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 912 No Comments

You shouldn't have shown up...

There has never been a son of the dragon in the long river of destiny. Your existence heralds...

The cold whispers kept echoing in Draconir's mind.

Prince Caledor's recent sleep quality has not been good. As the central figure in this unsolved case, he has the greatest suspicion and ability to organize an assassination to usurp power.

And the calmness and composure he showed made people feel that this son was very suspicious. If he flew into a rage and was angry at everything around him, it might be in line with the tradition of the Son of Caledor.

After waking up on the bench in a daze, Drachnir narrowed his eyes and saw the chief maid, Lila Ze, staring at him intently.

Being stared at by a beauty was a blessing, but the prince only raised his hand to pick up the wine glass and poured the cool liquid into his dry throat.

When the wine glass had gone through five rounds and the wine jug bottomed out, Dracnir looked at the thing in his hand and said with interest,

"Elves advocate homogenous revenge and the fatalism of eternal reincarnation. Will the wine glass in my hand take away my life?"

Assassination with poison, a power-seeking operation that affected the fate of the elves, Lilaze knew clearly that Drachnir was referring to the death of the second Phoenix King.

As for this military protection, as long as Draknir chooses to resist, I don't know how long the fragile balance can be maintained.

"This does not seem to be funny, Prince Draknir." Lilaze's expression was very serious. If Her Majesty the Queen had not intervened in the Phoenix Court, it is unknown what kind of chaos the current Ulthuan would be in.

"This is indeed not funny. Although I don't know Fenubar, he still fulfilled his duties as a Phoenix King two hundred years before he ascended the throne.

The Sword Master of Hoth didn't care about Prince Caledor's cynicism, and with a serious expression he took out an identity document with the seals of the Queen and the Supreme Mage.

Not to mention how great his achievements were, he was still considered a steadfast king. "After evaluating the deceased His Majesty, Dracnir stared at the newly introduced Sword Master of Hoth and continued,

Everyone believed in the queen, but there were also certain hidden dangers. A large part of Her Majesty's prestige came from the seconded Dragon Princes, several nobles who performed the duties of champion warriors in Avalon on behalf of the Dragon Princes.

Draconir shook his head and smiled, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said softly,

The chief maid remained calm and said unhurriedly,

"You will be protected by Avalon without fear for your life until the outcome of the investigation becomes clear."

"I don't know if it's because the world is changing too fast, or because I'm too inexperienced, but Avalon provides protection to Prince Caledoron, haha."

"So no useful information has been found through the investigation. If this state continues, it will be difficult for the Phoenix Court to maintain the unity of Ulthuan."

"I am Aharoni, the Hoth Sword Master who is responsible for investigating the cause of the Phoenix King's death. After many days of investigation, I hope you can answer some relevant questions."

"Tell me, no matter whether I did it or not, you can always have countless reasons to put the responsibility on me. The people need an answer, and you don't mind giving them an answer."

Lila Ze came to the side of the Sword Master Heth and persuaded the perfunctory prince, "This matter is very important. We need to investigate every suspicious link. The people need an answer, but it is definitely not a wrong answer. Besides, you don't want to be behind the scenes." Let the black hands be at large." The prince shook his shoulders and laughed, as if he was very amused by these words, "The answers the people need are just the answers you want them to know. You and I are both sensible people, and there is no need to use beautiful words to decorate the purpose. "

He focused his attention on the Sword Master Heth, and did not care about Lilaze's slightly changed expression, "Then what is your problem?"

"Regarding the third day of your stay in Lothern, our divination results showed that you did not stay at the manor. Can you tell me where you went that night."

"So the prince's itinerary still needs to be reported in full? What if I return to Caledor that night to hold a military meeting."

Sword Master Hoss immediately shook his head and rejected, "Both Lords Randy and Wycliffe are staying in Lothern that night. Based on the prestige of the two dragon princes in the Caledorian army, it is speculated that they must attend the military council when it is held."

"You're right." Draconir nodded in agreement, then put his hands on his face and said rather ruthlessly, "But what if I don't tell you about the day's itinerary?"

Swordmaster Hess expressed a result without emotion, "Your Excellency Belannar's whereabouts that day were also very mysterious. We don't know the specific action arrangements, and his current official identity is the Magical Advisor of the Dragon Palace.

If you want to get rid of this suspicion, please explain your itinerary for the day, otherwise the investigation team can only deduce the worst result. "

"No comment."

Lilaze's expression changed a bit. She intuitively believed that the Phoenix King's murder was related to Caledor. There might be some indirect relationship, but the masterminds would definitely not be Imrik and his son.

She stopped the Sword Master of Hoth as he was about to turn around and leave, and expressed her thoughts to Drachnir in a sincere tone.

"You should be aware of Caledor's current predicament. The battle situation in the Badlands has been at a disadvantage again and again. The Dawn Fortress continues to be harassed by polar beastmen, and the northern Druchi are also eyeing Anaheim.

No matter how confidential what you did that day, can it be compared to the Kingdom? "

Draknir nodded and did not deny Lilaze's statement, but still maintained the same tone.

"What you said makes some sense, but I still said what I just said - no comment. When Avalon cast doubtful eyes on Caledor and agreed to the White Tower of Hoth to use divination to find my whereabouts, the ancient Li The rules of mutual respect between monarch and minister under the regime have ceased to exist in name only.

Rather than paying attention to Caledor's situation, you should think about the consequences of naming me as the real murderer of the Phoenix King. "

The two investigators were helpless because of their unwillingness to give in.

Forced confession? Unless it was Drucci's brain, no one would do anything disrespectful to Prince Caledor when there was a Shining Star Dragon outside.

And some current rumors indicate that Edgar is about to arrive at Caledor Rest. This tough-minded elder will not mind exerting some military pressure on the Everqueen in order to obtain a satisfactory result.

The Sword Master of Hoth bowed his head and made corresponding courtesy, indicating that he understood Drachnir's attitude, and finally said before leaving,

"Please don't travel without permission in the near future. Maybe you don't care about what I say, but out of the racial consciousness of an Asur, I still recommend that you don't make the situation more chaotic. Ulthuan's safety trumps everything else. "

"It makes some sense. I hope you can find out who the murderer is as soon as possible." Draconir encouraged a little, and finally reminded,

"But I hope that the investigation method will be based on reality and rationality, rather than baseless divination and conjecture."
