Captulo 1651: Chapter 96: A Changed Strategy
Scarlet scales.
A massive body.
Golden vertical pupils.
All of this told everyone in Tert that it was a dragon!
The dragon, Dou’er.
Has returned!
This is Tert, no, it’s the entire Eastwalk ‘Mystical Side’, the most familiar and yet the most unfamiliar ‘legendary creature’ to all.
Familiar, because Dou’er is Prince Ruitai’s steed, well-known to all those on the ‘Mystical Side’.
Unfamiliar, because everyone knows Dou’er is Prince Ruitai’s steed, but only a few have truly seen Dou’er.
Because, for most of the past decade and more, the dragon Dou’er has been stationed at the Eastwalk border, symbolizing Sewock’s ultimate combat power.
Even people like Matthew and Luodeni, who are ‘Mystical Side’ figures, have only seen it once at the very beginning when Prince Ruitai subdued the dragon Dou’er.
And that was from a very great distance, only enough to see a silhouette.
Far less clear than now!
Watching Dou’er dive overhead, Matthew and Luodeni widened their eyes, the forr’s cleaver fell to the ground unnoticed, and the latter’s eyes, always squinted due to obesity, suddenly opened wide.
As for Taniel?
He was gritting his teeth, struggling to hold on.
Dragon might!
Not directed at anyone, just unconsciously emitted.
But even so, for soone like Taniel, who was at rank one, it was an extrely burdenso pressure.
Taniel was like this.
Not to ntion the ordinary people and the general ‘Mystical Side’ figures.
The forr were fainting en masse, collapsing like harvested wheat.
As for the latter?
Most were in a semi-unconscious state, barely holding on through gritted teeth.
A small portion fell into a state of chaos.
In such a state, it was difficult for them to control themselves.
So unrest therefore broke out.
Sounds of slaughter.
Sounds of explosions.
Pulled Matthew and Luodeni back to their senses.
The two exchanged a glance, almost speaking in unison—
"A show of power!”
Clearly, the incident at the ‘Knight’ camp last night left Prince Ruitai dissatisfied. .
Thus, the dragon Dou’er had returned.
And did not deliberately restrain its dragon might.
"The ‘Knights’ at the ‘Knight’ camp are going to be busy.”
Matthew shook his head, said with a trace of mockery.
For this forr Great Thief, neither Prince Ruitai nor those stiff knights had any favor.
If the two were to fight?
He’d naturally just watch.
Ideally, it’d be mutually destructive.
That’s what he hoped to see.
Although a bit unfair to the latter.
But for him, it was the best outco.
At least, he’d be at peace for quite so ti.
Luodeni, however, had a serious expression.
"What’s wrong?”
Taniel noticed the unusual look on this chubby informant’s face.
"It’s not just a show of power, but… provocation!”
Luodeni glanced at Taniel, then at Matthew whose gaze was cast their way, and spoke in a low voice.
"Provocation?”
Taniel and Matthew didn’t grasp it imdiately.
"In Tert, there’s a ‘Knight’ camp.”
"And also…”
"The ‘Night Watcher’s Ho’!”
Luodeni reminded them.
Taniel and Matthew’s faces changed instantly.
One must know, the ‘Night Watchers’ ideology is to eliminate ‘abnormal creatures’.
Including but not limited to ‘monsters’, ‘magical creatures’, ‘evils’, and so forth.
And if seriously considered, the dragon Dou’er could be classified as a ‘monster’ or ‘magical creature’.
If it was before, with Prince Ruitai present, it’d naturally be well water not interfering with river water.
But, this ti!
The dragon Dou’er had already caused unrest.
Though the outco was uncertain, Taniel and Matthew could be sure, there were deaths!
Under such a premise, will the ‘Night Watchers’ sit idly by?
Certainly not!
With the character of the ‘Night Watchers’, they would definitely step in!
"It should not be!”
"In six days, it will be Sewock the Seventh’s funeral!”
"After the funeral, he will be able to beco the new Emperor!”
"At this ti, why would Prince Ruitai make enemies? Shouldn’t he wait patiently until he becos Emperor, then address it?”
Even Taniel noticed sothing was amiss.
Let alone the cunning old fox Matthew.
This forr Great Thief once again felt looming troubles, wrapped in danger, rushing towards him.
"Luodeni, Taniel, shall we scoot?”
"To Eastwalk!”
"The sunshine and beaches there are nice.”
Matthew suggested.
"Running away is not a solution.”
Taniel shook his head.
He wouldn’t leave.
If it were just him, he wouldn’t care.
If he had to go, he’d go.
But there’s still Jason.
His friend Jason is there!
His friend Jason is a ‘Night Watcher’, and at this ti, absolutely wouldn’t leave.
Therefore, he cannot go.
Matthew looked at Luodeni.
Luodeni also shook his head.
"Why?”
Matthew looked puzzled.
Taniel not leaving, Matthew understood, after all, with Jason there, but Luodeni not leaving, it puzzled Matthew.
"This matter is not as simple as you think.”
"We’ve long been involved.”
"Don’t forget how we ended up here and what happened yesterday!”
"At this mont, if we leave, we might beco the trigger, then—get blasted into pieces!”
Luodeni spoke softly, a hint of worry on his chubby face.
This chubby informant finished his words and started walking again.
"Where are you going?”
Matthew hurriedly asked.
"To gather information.”
Luodeni said, just as he pushed the door, he suddenly thought of sothing and reminded Matthew.
