The Truth of Magic

Chapter 465: The Great Dragon Blocking the Road

At this moment, on the snowy ice field, the wind and snow outside the carriage kept beating against the windows, as if it was about to squeeze into the inner layer little by little.

Freire also observed Zhao Xu the whole time, trying to catch the information in each other's words.

Whether Zhao Xu would really take out the artifact to help find the murderer didn't make any sense to Freire.

All his intentions are to help his younger sister ascend to the throne.

This time before returning to the capital city of Oulu, he was suddenly attacked by winter wolves, which already made him vigilant.

Reminiscent of the fact that Commander Tang De currently has only one illegitimate daughter from outside, many veterans in the upper echelons of the alliance already want to put more or less chips there, and his sister's side, which is usually very busy with visitors, has become thinner. stand up.

He only found out two months ago that even the Mage Association branch had sent people to contact the illegitimate daughter Fleur, all of which made him feel the urgency of time.

The system of the Northern Alliance is not a feudal monarchy. The position of "Great Commander" is more of an election system. Each term is ten years, with a maximum of three terms. Once elected, it will have great influence on the entire Northern Alliance, including the appointment of many town and city lords, which can determine most of them.

Therefore, every time a new system needs to be rotated, it is the darkest moment of bloody struggle in the capital of the Northern Alliance, Oulu.

The current commander in chief, Tang De, can be said to have only been in office for two years in his second term, and he has no worries in this regard. Perhaps it is because he feels that he is already full-fledged, so he publicly disclosed his former illegitimate daughter.

Over the past hundred years, the position of "Great Commander" has generally been rotated among the several big families in Oru City.

And no matter how Freire guessed, he didn't know that Zhao Xu, who was sitting across from the carriage at the moment, was thinking about the relationship between Tang De and the five brass treasure chests, or the specific relationship between the other party's nephew's paternal line.

After a long time, Zhao Xu said, "It's a pity, if I have a magic weapon, it must be my duty to take it out to help Chief Tang De."

Freire also smiled awkwardly, and was about to follow his plan to resolve the estrangement caused by the mention of "artifact".

After all, when the other party is a "branch president of the Mage Association", anyone who covets the artifact needs to consider the perception of the Mage Association.

This is where the "talisman" of the position of "chairman" lies.

Any "assassination" against the current president of the Masters Association will inevitably be held accountable by the Masters Association.

Freire still clearly remembers that hundreds of years ago in the Northern Alliance, there was a case where the president of a small town was poisoned and killed. In the end, a "legendary mage" broke through the sky and used prophecy spells to find the murderer. The entire force was uprooted on the spot.

At that time, even the association branch of the alliance hadn't had time to react.

However, Zhao Xu went on to say: "After all, the major forces have already entered into the investigation, and in the end they can infer the fact that the artifact has been accompanied by the palace of Ai Zhuo."

Freire was slightly taken aback, but looked at Zhao Xu very seriously.

This made him couldn't help but sigh, what a pity.

Zhao Xu in front of him could be said to be one of the few candidates in the current alliance who could hold the magic weapon.

Just now, if Mage Zhongxia admitted to possessing an artifact, then he, Freyr, would have to plan and tell the other party on the spot, telling the distribution of power in the former Northern Alliance, so that this foreign Mage Zhongxia could avoid hitting the wall a few times .

"I don't know who these are?" At this moment, Freire came to his senses. He can be regarded as one of the big figures in Oru City, and he treats people very politely at this moment, which completely falls through the glasses of outsiders.

"Antinoya."

Zhao Xu's mentor, the only descendant of the ancient magic empire so far, the legal owner of Ernest's secret collection, "Antinoya", one of the oldest heroes who witnessed the establishment of the mage association, directly introduced his name.

Freire couldn't help recalling it, but he didn't have the slightest impression.

As a celebrity currently favored by Tang De, Freire was also assigned to work as a matchmaker for the Mage Association.

Although he wasn't even a magic apprentice, it didn't prevent him from hearing enough gossip about the association. Even regarding the high-level candidates and the division of power of the association far away in Mystra, he may be more clear about who is who than the local players in Mystra.

The term Antinoya had never appeared in his memory stream.

And Freire was waiting for the other party to introduce himself, but he didn't realize that the female mage had finished talking here, so he turned to the female knight on the other side to make it boring.

Vivian said, "Bodyguard."

Equally concise.

"Bodyguard." After the White Dragon Serus replied in the same way, he was still embarrassed to say the word "your mount".

And after hearing about this relationship, Freire, who is only under thirty years old, but able to rely on his sister to hold a high position, has experienced a lot of hardships since childhood, and has honed his human instincts today.

He laughed on the spot: "It seems that Miss Antinoya is Mr. Zhong Xia's consort?"

It seems normal to bring family members to take up the post. As for the fact that the other party is a player, Frere has ignored it.

Even as far as he knew, there were a few Earth players who had become the henchmen of the leader Tang De, and they were also vigorously cultivated, and Tang De spent a lot of resources on them.

"No." Zhao Xu corrected immediately.

He doesn't dare to do such a transgressive thing now.

"How did you come to that conclusion?"

At this moment, Antinoya asked interestingly.

Seeing the strange answers from the two parties at the same time, Freire was surprised for a moment, but he immediately reacted.

This is probably what the young couple are talking about now, and he immediately complimented: "Because Miss Antinoya, your eyes were all on Mr. Zhong Xia just now, which is exactly the same as these two bodyguards. And you are not a bodyguard, Naturally, they are a couple."

Antinoya nodded suddenly, as if she had really learned, "Well, I'm also a bodyguard now."

"..." Freire suddenly felt that the other party was teasing him, but he held back.

It's just that Antinoya's cloak flicked lightly at this moment, and she glanced at him in surprise, but let him see a trace inside.

Immediately, Frere's heartbeat couldn't be stopped at all, and it kept beating.

As a popular person in Oru City, Freire is not rare to have seen stunning beauty, and even his sister is such a stunning beauty, otherwise he would not be able to subdue the leader of the alliance, Tang De, in his boudoir.

It's just that it's hard for him to imagine that there are such beautiful women in the world, and it's blasphemy for him to even describe them carefully.

Frere's face kept turning red and white.

As for Zhao Xu, he silently watched this scene.

Including Freire's gaffe after seeing Antinoya's concealed appearance, he had everything in his eyes.

But Zhao Xu didn't bother to wake him up.

He only hoped that Freire would persist until he finished meeting Tang De before doing anything stupid. If he treated Antinoya the same way he treated the noble ladies and girls in the aristocratic circle of Oru city, he would definitely die a miserable death.

And the white dragon Serus also noticed this, and he couldn't help thinking contemptuously that this man was indeed an animal with lower body thinking.

It's like Cyrus, after enjoying the transformation, he should leave ruthlessly.

How could the giant dragon be trapped by such an affair with his sons and daughters with his ambitions everywhere.

Especially when the other party has his eyes on a legendary sorcerer who is first-class and terrifying in this world.

It's still the kind of "unsolvable existence" that can spontaneously initiate legendary spells. When he thought of facing such a ferocious woman who could easily kill him, Cyrus felt as if he had lost his desire.

Suddenly, the carriage that was moving forward suddenly stopped, the pulleys on the sled were directly locked, and immediately the carriage slipped out of two obvious track indentations on the snow behind.

"What's the matter?" Freire immediately said angrily, as if his mind was being pryed into, extremely annoyed.

"My lord." The voice of the guard outside the door trembled and said, "There is a dragon..."

"The white dragon that escaped just now came back?"

It was only then that Freire remembered that he had just been shocked by the identity of the Mage Zhong Xia because of his agitation, and he forgot to ask the other party about the whereabouts of the fleeing white dragon.

"No, it's a group of white dragons, and one is particularly huge..."

At this moment, Zhao Xu's eyes froze, and he scanned Serus on the spot.

Rescue?

It's just that at this moment, Cyrus had already drooped his head, and his huge and strong body was about to shrink completely, hiding it tightly.

At this time, there was a roar of a giant dragon outside.

The sound is extremely grand and far-reaching, so vast that it resounds all over the sky.

"Serus, get out of shame, you dragon clan, come out!"

Zhao Xu couldn't help but cast a glance at Serus immediately, "I pulled it myself, so I'll clean it up myself."

On the other hand, Cyrus looked at him with the humble look of a younger brother, "It's just an ancient dragon outside, I can't afford to mess with it."

Zhao Xu couldn't help sighing.

He couldn't afford it, Serus, but Zhao Xu could?

It's just that he glanced at Antinoya who was beside him, who was still sitting idly with crossed legs, pouted slightly as if the door was blocked by a pig outside.

Well, it's really worth it.

"Go back and hand over your treasure." Zhao Xu said lightly.

"The dragon can be killed but not humiliated." Cyrus argued on the spot.

"Then you go out."

"Thirty percent." Cyrus chose to suffer a little humiliation.

"get out."

"Half." Its humiliation has reached the extreme.

"go out."

"Damn it, why are you more greedy than our dragon?" Cyrus was on the verge of collapse.

"I didn't offend a great ancient dragon," Zhao Xu said harshly.

"Shouldn't this employer ask employees to resolve basic disputes?"

"That doesn't include romantic debt." Zhao Xu asserted immediately.

Suddenly, this Cyrus blushed, as if his face was congested with blood, he gasped and said: "That's all, you have to drive away the other party for me."

It was just that the conversation between Zhao Xu and Serus was heard not only by Frere, but also by the guard sitting in the driver's seat.

They were a little confused, did they drag the "Legendary Mage" this trip?

Is this ancient dragon turning a blind eye?
