Chapter 397 Dilemma
ps: The second update today, the fourth update tomorrow.》, please, please recommend, please.
Over the lion plain.
As a strange armed airship approached, the guards of Lionheart City had already reacted. A team of six Force warriors transformed into giant eagles and flew towards the airship.
At the same time when the giant eagle took off, Rollin had already learned what might have happened in Lion Heart City from the guards' mouth. He quickly walked to Elru, who was looking at Lion Heart City by the window, and pulled him away from the window.
"Young master, the situation is unclear, you'd better not show up first." Luo Lin said. The giant eagle's vision has reached a pervert. This is the top ten in the Starlet continent, and it can rank in the top ten in the entire world's Force battle body.
"But the city guards have arrived, what should I do?" Elu also felt the danger. He was very familiar with this kind of family struggle. He knew that at this time, if a family heir who had returned from afar might die inexplicably.
"Don't worry, leave it to me to deal with it. Juta, don't show up," Rollin instructed, and said to Weiqi beside the two of them at the same time: "Let's go, go to the deck with me."
Weizi did not rush to agree, but looked at Eru first, and Eru looked at Rollin and waited for him to explain.
"No one has seen me. To Lionheart City, I am a stranger. I plan to put the airship into a merchant ship hired by the North Valley Chamber of Commerce. Weiqi was originally a member of the chamber of commerce, and she was the best candidate to play the role of the airship manager. I acted as her guard and she would deal with the giant eagle warrior who came to check. How about it, do you have any problems, Miss Weiqi?" asked Rollin.
Weiqi shook her head: "I'm fine. The lords of all the main cities welcome the merchants. Master. If I go, no one will suspect that you are on the boat."
"Okay. Then be careful." Eru instructed, and prepared to hide in the cabin with Juta, but was stopped by Rollin: "Young master, the other party will definitely check the cabin. The cabin is not safe. I suggest that you and Juta change the clothes of a chamber of commerce and clean it in the cabin. No one will pay attention to you."
"Okay." This time, Elu had experienced life and death several times. He had long since lost the pretentiousness of the noble young master, so he immediately did what Luo Lin said.
On this side, Weiqi was in front, and Rollin followed him and walked onto the airship deck. Rollin made arrangements along the way, facing the caliber of everyone on the airship. When he arrived on the deck, the samurai of the Chamber of Commerce also arrived and all pretended to be on the airship.
After a while, the giant eagle warriors from Lion Heart City had arrived near the airship. The largest wingspan of these giant eagles was about thirteen meters, just like Juta. They were also in their childhood and were not much stronger than Guta.
This is not because of the low talent of the guard, but because of the Force Seed.
Along the way, Rollin also had some understanding of these things. According to the nobles' trust in the guards, they would give the Force seeds of different strengths, but this also has an upper limit. Giving the best Force seeds to the guards can only allow the Force body of a guard to grow to youth. If you want to truly grow to the prime of your life, unless you are so talented that it is against the will of heaven, it is basically an impossible task.
This is done to prevent the lower one from competing.
"The Lion Heart City Act, foreign armed airships cannot approach the city wall five thousand meters. I order you to leave or land on the spot." The giant eagle with the largest body spoke.
There are powerful long-range magic cannons on the armed airship, which are enough to break through the city walls. There are also various near-striking attack magic and defensive magic on the airship, which is equivalent to a war fortress. No matter which city lord, no matter what city is, it will not let this thing approach its own city walls.
Weiqi walked forward calmly and first revealed her identity. She shouted: "I am Weiqi, the head of the North Valley Trading Company. This airship is the escort boat I hired. We want to go into the city to do some jewelry transactions."
I heard that the merchants from the chamber of commerce came, and the tone of the Giant Eagle Warrior suddenly improved: "So please lower the airship and see the supply station on the plain? That is your stop, where there are special small airships to send you to the city for free. Of course, before the stop, we requested a routine security check."
"Of course there is no problem." Wei Qi smiled softly. With her beautiful appearance and charming figure, the attitudes of the giant eagle warriors became much better invisibly.
After the guards got on the airship, they did not take this seriously. They walked around in the deck cabin and found only five Force samurai, as well as some ordinary samurai. In the Stallet continent, it is not uncommon for the lord's Force samurai to be hired, because there are always some unsophisticated city lords who rely on the commissions to adjust their guards, so the lords did not ask much.
As for Elu, who was dressed as a slap, these guards didn't even look at it. As for the guards' tower, it might be the reason for the Force Sensation. These giant eagle warriors looked at it a few more, but Wei Qi urged them a few times in a coquettish tone. Several giant eagle warriors had never seen such a formation, and their bones were lighter, so they retracted their attention.
After walking around, the captain of the Giant Eagle Team smiled and said, "Miss Weiqi, welcome you to Lion Heart City."
Weiqi smiled and handed over a handful of jewelry without any storm. The captain quietly stopped it, and the smile on his face became even more kind.
Weiqi then asked in surprise: "I saw the black heraldic flag on the city wall. Why, has any big shot passed away?"
The captain's face was gloomy: "It's our city lord. His body was injured and he didn't survive. Oh. But don't worry, the city lord left an undisputed will. The young Master Elok took over his position and became the new city lord. Now the name has been decided. In three days, it will be the official ceremonial ceremony. No one will compete with him for the inheritance rights, so the Lion Heart City will be as stable as ever."
"Oh, this is really a blessing in disgrace." Weiqi sighed quietly, and then a strange look appeared on her face: "But as far as I know, the heir of Lion Heart City is not that short, isn't it Young Master Eru? Why is it Elroke?"
The captain didn't think that Weizi knew about Elu. Who said that the little dwarf of Lion Heart City is famous? He shrugged: "Young Master Elu is missing, and no one knows where he is. It is said that he met a robber in the Wuyue Continent and was killed. A city must have an heir, right? I think Young Master Elu is a better candidate. Young Master Elu's body is too weak. OK. Don't ask too much, these have nothing to do with you, you can go into the city."
As he said that, one of the giant eagle soldiers left behind to supervise the airship landing, while the others returned to Lion Heart City.
When the armed airship landed successfully and the huge steel buckles on the platform were parked on the buckles of the hanging side of the ship, the last giant eagle warrior also left. The people from the supply station received everyone on the ship.
The samurai of the Chamber of Commerce helped unload several large boxes of jewelry and calligraphy and paintings on the airship, then settled the rent for the airship with the Ailinburg airship and the Force Warrior, and then boarded the ordinary airship of the Lionheart City and flew towards the Lionheart City.
They are now a businessman. As long as they pay a certain fee, they don’t have to worry about being in trouble in Lion Heart City.
During the whole process, Eru and Juta were wearing ordinary people's clothes. They acted as servants behind the team and followed this temporary caravan all the way to Lion Heart City. No one doubted their identity.
The process of entering the city was very smooth. After an ordinary civilian airship carried everyone into Lion Heart City, he stopped on the station platform in the city. After everyone got off the airship, Elu quietly said: "Go and find my grandfather!"
He already knew what was happening in the city, and he was angry and anxious. He knew that in the current Lion Heart City, he could only rely on his grandfather and two uncles.
Rollin shook his head: "Don't worry, the target is too obvious now. Let's find a hotel to stay in first. Then we go there quietly."
Elru was in extreme anxiety. He was a little unruly. At this time, he regarded Rollin as his last straw. Seeing that he said this, he could only nod.
"Young Master, what hotel is closest to your grandfather's mansion?" Luo Lin asked softly.
"Iron Eagle Hotel. Two streets are my grandfather's Black Rose Manor."
"Then go to the Iron Eagle Hotel."
The group turned to the Iron Eagle Hotel. Along the way, they could see many black flags hanging on the death of the old city lord. The guards patrolling the street also had a black shirt on their bodies. Many sentimental women occasionally wiped their tears. They seemed to be quite sad about the death of the old city lord.
As he walked along the way, Elu lowered his head and looked silent. Occasionally, Rollin could hear one or two sobs that he could hold back. He didn't say anything, and gently patted Elu on the shoulder to show comfort. Along the way, he knew Elu was very respectful to his father and had a strong admiration. It was estimated that he was one of the few people in the whole city who really felt sad about the death of the old city lord.
We arrived at the Iron Eagle Hotel without any trouble. After a while, Rollin, who had been dressed in an ordinary businessman, Eru and Juta rushed to the Black Rose Manor.
The distance between the two streets was really not far. After more than ten minutes, the three of them arrived at the site.
Standing across the street, you can see the manor's entrance gate locked. Looking in through the gaps in the iron fence next to the manor, you can see occasionally people walking around, but you can clearly feel the depressing atmosphere.
Something is not right.
Rollin took Eru back to the corner of the street and said, "Young Master, for safety reasons, don't come forward first, I'll explore the way first. Now, if I go to visit, what name is best?"
"When I went out, my grandfather was recuperating. You went in the name of visiting the disease, so I went as the servant of Miss Wendylu, my aunt who went out in anger with my grandfather three years ago. My aunt's full name is Shaer Wendylu Grace Gregory Shaer, which is the nickname, and Grace is the surname of my aunt's mother. No one except the family knows her full name, which can be used to verify her identity." At the critical moment, Eru's head seemed extremely clear.
"How should I identify myself when I finally meet your grandfather?" Rollin asked.
Elru thought for a while, took out an exquisite dagger and handed it to Rollin: "This is a gift from my grandfather. If you show it to him or my grandmother, they will know that I am here."
Luo Lin took the dagger and put it away carefully, and then said, "I'll go find out the situation. If the situation is wrong, I will send a signal. You will leave here immediately and leave the Lion Heart City, and find another way. If the situation is normal, I will definitely go out with the servants to greet you. Remember, if you don't see me coming out, you must not show up, and don't follow them into the manor, do you understand?"
Elugson's key point.
"Juta, do your best to protect the young master's safety. Can you give me this promise?" Rollin looked at the guard. The old city lord had appointed a new heir. This guard actually had no reason to protect Eru, but now he can only rely on him. Rollin believes that the guard is relying on it.
Guard Guta nodded solemnly: "I will use my life to protect the young master's safety!"
Luo Lin nodded, looked left and right, then walked out of the corner of the street, walked towards the door of the manor, and pressed the knocker on the iron door. After waiting for a while, an old man came to open the door. When he saw Luo Lin wearing ordinary clothes outside the door, he was a little unhappy: "Did the general's door knock on randomly? Do you want to get a whip?"
Luo Lin was straight and showed no humility. He whispered in a low voice: "I am Miss Wendylu's servant. The lady heard that the general was sick and asked me to visit her. The lady said that she would delay some time if she had something to do, but she would arrive in three days at the latest."
"Miss Wendylu? Why should I believe you?" The old man's face improved a little, but he was still full of suspicion.
"The full name of the lady is Shaer Wendylu Grace, Gregory Grace, is the surname of the lady's mother, and Shaer is the nickname of the lady." Rollin repeated the message Elru gave him.
This really worked. As soon as these words were said, the old gatekeeper was stunned. After a while, his face showed nostalgia and sighed: "The master's willful daughter is finally willing to go home. Come in."
He opened the door. (To be continued...)
