In Galloping Horse College, there is a cafeteria specially for junior and above students. The seats here are larger and the food is better. It is a place where Xiaohua, Britt Lanyuan, Elinda Maned Wolf and others often gather. Recently, with the More and more children were sent to the academy, and the cafeteria became more and more lively.
In the evening, almost all the junior mages and knights gathered here. While everyone was eating seafood, they talked about life in the academy.
"Dear students, let us thank Master Xiaohua and Earl Tierney!" A student named Empers Galloping Horse shouted loudly.
"Thank you, Count!" the entire restaurant shouted in unison.
Suddenly the door opened, and Dandelion appeared outside with Willis and Merritt, making the young people in the cafeteria cheer again.
"Dandilian? Are you back from Dragon Tooth City?" Elenda asked happily after seeing a few people. During the battle in Hindukel, they followed Neil and Canine Tooth through life and death, which can be regarded as life and death. Friendship.
"Yes," Dandelion looked at the laughing crowd in the cafeteria with some surprise, "This is what you are doing?"
"Tierney is back! He brought everyone several boxes of seafood!"
The three of Dandelion were led into the cafeteria by Elenda, and they saw that all the long dining tables were filled with seafood. The magic power spread from the inside of these seafood, arousing everyone's greed.
Compared to such a sumptuous banquet, the potions they seized from Dragon Tooth City were completely worthless.
"Why is there so much seafood?"
Even if you don't know that these are Warcraft meat, you can still see that these fresh products are expensive. Even Dandelion did not dare to be so lavish in the past.
"Tierney brought these over. He said we should open them to eat. There will be more tomorrow!" Elenda said as she handed Dandelion a big crab. "Eat it while it's hot. It won't be as good when it's cold." Delicious.”
What Dandelion didn't know was that because of his outstanding fishing talents, Baishan Island, Red Dragon Rock and Brejak were delivering seafood to Tierney every day, helping him to reach a high level as soon as possible and be able to participate in the frontline battles in person.
However, the three families all delivered seafood to Tierney at the same time according to their high-end appetite, which was far beyond his limit, so the children of Galloping Horse Academy now have the luxury of eating.
With enough monster meat, Dandelion was naturally embarrassed to take out her potion, and instead enjoyed the dinner with all her classmates. However, when she was about to return to the Dragon Tooth City Palace, she was interrupted. Inform that the guards of Longya City and Yeqi City are about to change their defenses, and the original palace guards will not go back without permission.
"This is not good!" The female knight felt bad and hoped to go to Lant directly to request to go back to Dragon Tooth City, but was told that Lant was not there.
When I saw Rand again, it was already the next day, the morning of December 8.
As soon as he saw Lant, Dandelion said loudly: "Sir, the current situation in the Royal Capital is chaotic. Most of the members of the Knights have never been to the Royal Capital, but I am very familiar with it. I am willing to go to the Royal Capital for you. .”
"No, you are not suitable there," Lant replied firmly, "I just built a large building in the northeast of Yeqi City this morning. It will be used as the business center and the headquarters of the Yeqi City Chamber of Commerce in the future. You, this group of knights, Will head over there.”
"But sir..." Seeing Lant's determination, Dandelion said anxiously, "You can't do this. I still have many friends in Dragon Tooth City, and they are all in danger. In addition,..."
Before Dandelian could finish speaking, Lant said: "There is something I want to tell you. Last night, at least 10 gang fights took place.
Fighting started from above the city, on the streets, all the way to the underground market, and even in the city's drainage canals. Most of these were instigated by gangs supported by the Feilong and Blue Lion families, and targeted the Chamber of Commerce of the Benma family. .
However, after these gangs appeared, they were quickly wiped out by several teams of knights from Dragon Tooth City. Last night, the number of gangs wiped out was no less than 200. "
After saying this, Lant looked at Dandelion and asked: "Are you satisfied with the result?"
"Sir, what do you mean?" The girl was sweating profusely now.
Seeing that Dandelion refused to admit it, Lant added: "In addition to these private soldiers, another person died early this morning - Gatsby Lanyuan."
"What!" Dandelion almost shouted compared to just now, "Gatsby is dead?"
Lant nodded leisurely: "Yes, he was assassinated by a demon mentor in the black market,"
"This..." Dandelion really couldn't stand now. Her legs had already moved towards the door, but she found that Lant was sitting firmly on the lord's chair.
"Sir, Gatsby is your business agent in Dragon Tooth City, and you just watch him die like this? This is a challenge to you, the Duke!"
Dandelion's statement didn't even make Lant stand up. For Lant, Gatsby was a time bomb and the prohibited transactions that Gatsby had dealt with.
I am afraid that only he himself can explain clearly that once he is held accountable by the imperial officials, he, the lord, will not be able to bear it. On the contrary, now that Gatsby has died at the hands of the demons, he has some kind of correctness and completely frees Lant. come out.
"Little Red Bird has information on all Ye Qi City-related transactions he has handled, so I don't need to worry about missing orders," Rant said nonchalantly, "but those he reached privately do not belong to Ye Qi City official I can’t guarantee the deal.”
"you……"
"For example, the 120 war horses ordered by the Lanyuan Family from him, the magic potion transferred from Xingtian City to the Feilong Nest through his hands, and the iguana leather armor from the lizards south of White Tree City to the Red Dragon Family. , I don’t have any information.”
Now Dandelion's face was turning red and white. She was anxious to go back to Longya City to deal with the rest of the meal, but she didn't dare to tell Lant face to face.
"My lord, I don't understand what you mean by what you said to me today."
"I promised Queen Tyriana to protect the bloodline of the Red Dragon family as much as possible," Lant no longer pretended, "Princess Dandelion Red Dragon, I suggest you stay in Yeqi City recently. Everything in Yacheng has nothing to do with you 9 years ago!"
"..." The moment Lant called out Dandelion's surname, the girl's mouth seemed to be blocked, and two lines of tears fell unconsciously from the corners of her eyes.
Ten years ago, her real name was Dany Red Dragon, the youngest daughter of the then king Arnold Red Dragon. Because she grew up in the imperial capital, she escaped the war disaster that year.
"Sir, we are almost successful, can you let me go back?" Dandelion begged, wiping away her tears.
When he mentioned the so-called success, Lant became even more angry: "What you mean about success is that you used Gatsby to resell the armor, potions and horses from Yeqi City to the private soldiers of the Lan Yuan family, and then lured the Feilong family. Are you going to directly confront me and use chaos to knock out Feilong’s forces one by one?”
"Sir, these are all my responsibilities. I betrayed you." Dandelion, who had been completely exposed, simply knelt down. "We didn't originally intend to fight like this..."
Now Lant's tone is getting colder and colder: "Some things, as long as you take the first step, you won't stop."
However, the female knight still begged: "So I beg you, let me go back by myself. I am willing to bear the consequences alone!"
"Just you? When Queen Tyriana was here, she failed to protect the humans she cared about."
