Chapter 202 Chapter 202 A little tacit understanding
"The time can be matched. And from the degree of influence Look, if Budd provides the Prime Minister with the secrets of the Jiangu rune technology and the key to the manufacture of the city defense giant crossbow, then he is indeed worthy of being carefully protected by the Prime Minister." Shiloai said: "In this way, he is protected by the leylines. It is understandable that the killer was ambushed. The Jiangu National Assembly or the temple sent an assassin, and the Prime Minister must not continue to investigate, there is nothing left. But these are just guesses, there is no evidence."

"Yes, just guesses." Dagon clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "I regret it now. I should kill him and take out his neck bone directly."

"Dagon, why do you already think it is Pakistan De's problem?" Shiroai put his hand on Dagon's shoulder, persuaded: "Let's not say that there is no evidence for this, just say you are going to kill him. The leyline killer smashed him to pieces, discussing politics. The Prime Minister rescued him anyway, isn't he still alive and kicking, and he doesn't seem to have been seriously injured at all? That's the power of the dive technique, not something you can solve with a martial skill."

"I know, I I know..." Dagon slowly closed his eyes with a tired look on his face. In his mind, Bud's words reappeared one after another. Under the premise that he "betrayed the Jiangu clan and betrayed secrets", many words had different meanings. If he did, Dagon couldn't judge his thoughts and intentions, but he could imagine how much pressure and impact those things would have on a Jiangu clansman.

"Hiroai, do you know what the Ais Ain contract is?"

"Eh? It seems that you have worked hard and already know Ais Ain It's a contract. It's a dive technique contract. It needs to be hosted by Ais Ain's pastor, performing all elements of the dive technique incantation, and a dive technique ceremony notarized by Ais Ain's dive force. It is a very top-level dive technique can often achieve some magical effects, and it is nothing difficult to come back to life..."

Shi Luoai suddenly stopped. She's quite clever, and can dispel an entire fog with just one clue. "You didn't read it from the book, but Bard mentioned the Ais Ain contract. No wonder he survived after being chopped up, so that's the way it is... hey, I feel more and more that your inference is that That's right."

"I should have killed him, right?"

Hiroai waved her hand and said, "As your friend, I have to say you missed it. I have a chance to start. But as the teacher of the Academy, I have to use another way of saying it. Dagon, maybe you don't like listening, so if you don't want to listen, I won't say it."

"Say Come on, I can hear what you say."

"I'm from Elf Race, you're Jiangu clansman, the same thing may feel different, but I'll just say one question:" Shiloai Although she got Dagon's permission, she still chose the words very cautiously and said: "One Bard can reveal all the secrets of the rune spell and the heavy crossbow of the city defense of the Jiangu family for so many years, and then the elves will learn it? Me? I mean, it's easy, and indeed easiest, to blame someone, but is it right? Is it totally right? It's not between you and Bud after all."

"This It's between me and Bud." Dagon shook his head in disapproval. "Now that I know, it's about me, and I have the responsibility to solve it..."

"No way!" Shiloh heard "it" as "he", thinking that Dagon wanted to Going back to assassinate Bud, she hurriedly stopped it. "Bard is in the elf camp, and you have an impossible chance to kill him. According to your theory, he is protected by the Ais Ain contract. As long as he is within the contract, he will not die, you will only die in vain. "

Dagon looked at the sincere anxious look on Shiroai's face, and said, "I'm not going to assassinate him, I know I can't, unless I can become a very powerful priest first and get rid of Ai. Silk Iron's contract."

Hiroai nodded hard. As a spell expert, she knew very well that Ais Ain's contract was basically unsolvable. Generally, the contract would only be released when other dive forces directly intervened and Ais Ain was too lazy to care (and had to pay the price first). If Dagon has the level of diving technique, the Prime Minister will never care about Bard's life or death, instead he doesn't need to rescind the contract, and will directly sacrifice Bard's life with both hands.

"That's right, you have to learn spell, dive technique, incantation spell, rune spell, alchemy spell, array spell, whatever. Martial power can't solve this problem anyway." Shiloh Ai saw Dagon's nomination, knowing that he had persuaded him to stop, so he smiled slightly. "Don't undervalue oneself. The martial skill gives you a good physical quality, allowing you to respond quickly and have a lot of means, which is the envy of many sorcerers. The elite Academy has studied it. Martial skill first and spell later. This way is even more difficult. It's easier to get through, at least it's better than the other way around."

"I'll definitely study spell." Dagon nodded calmly and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm very calm now, even more calm than before. There is still a hint of relief, and I feel a little more relaxed."

"Ah? Dagon, are you all right?" Shiloh leaned over, lay on Dagon's shoulders, and placed her pink-flaming hand on Dagon's shoulder. on his forehead. "Aren't you confused?"

"No, no." Dagon shook his head with a smile, and said, "at first I think the elves are amazing, the elves are so magical, rune in Elvish language The spell also appeared, as well as the imitation city defense giant crossbow, yes, and the woodland ranger bow, which is really a good thing."

"I was thinking: what should the Jiangu do? I went down - so my heart was heavy. Now, I find that there is a shadow of Jiangu clansman behind these inventions of the original elves. Although this shadow disgusts me and makes me despise, it at least proves that the Jiangu family has not been eliminated."

"Huh? You've been thinking about this all day?" Shiroai frowned slightly. She wanted to persuade Dagon to let him not worry so much, and how happy it would be to be with her. However, she also knew that this incident involved the two races of elves and dwarves. From her point of view and receiving from Dagon's position, some arrows were indeed difficult to shoot.

Jiangu clansman is somewhat marginalized, but at the earliest, it was a choice made by the Jiangu people themselves. Just like the Neil family in Jiangu City, other Jiangu tribes also have the quirky habit of "closing it" at any time, plus the stubborn temper of not admitting mistakes, many times it's not that the elves don't bring the Jiangu tribe to play with, but Can't play at all.

There must be different feelings and understandings from the point of view of the elves and the point of view of the Jiangu clan, and it is difficult to tell who is right and who is wrong in a short period of time in the entanglement between the two longevity races. In this regard, Dagon and Shirouai thought of the same question. Although they just glanced at each other and didn't say anything, they started from themselves and had such a tacit understanding:

Facing the present and focusing on the future.

No spell can change the past - Shiloe thought. There's a future for the Jiangu clan - that's Dagon's idea.

"Dagon, you should take good care of your injuries, and then learn to spell well. No matter what you want to do, you can't do it if you don't have the skills. Just like you don't have the martial skill, those students won't listen to your arrangements. Put on heavy armor."

"Academy got it?"

"I got it. There's such a big news about the martial skill exam, how could I not know? All the Academy likes to wear it the most. You are the one who is heavily armored, and you live next door to the leader named Hanmodom. This is a very good relationship. I didn't tell the truth, and I didn't need to tell the story. It's not hard to guess. "

“What will the Academy do?”

Shiloh shook his head: “As far as I know, the Academy is not going to do anything, and they haven’t violated the rules. Ririch is incompetent and furious, everywhere. She lost her temper. She couldn't change the grades of herself and the students of the Jiangu ethnic group, so she wanted to come to trouble you, but I got back. A student, do you really think that she is important?"

"Why in the world is she Can I tyrannize at the Academy?"

"It's not even a tyrannize. It can only be said that she has a problem with her brain, which may be related to her family. Her family's temperament is a bit weird, and all kinds of difficult to serve. But those are also crimes for the benefit of Elf Race, and people generally let them go - as long as she's not facing you." Shiloh shook his head and said, "I don't want to mention her, it's boring and in a bad mood. ."

"Okay, let's talk about something else. How far do we have to go? I'm sorry that Bud and I delayed your itinerary."

" I love that you can recognize your mistakes and apologize, so much better than other Jiangu clansman!" Shiloh adjusted her hair and poked the stray parts back into her hat with her fingers. "According to the map, we have to go north for two weeks to reach Egg Island, and the tribe I'm looking for is there. They go to Egg Island every winter to avoid the snow, and there are underground caves and hot springs there, so we don't have to worry about missing it. ."

"Well, got it. If they live underground, then you're right to take me."

"If I don't take you, I can do it myself. Go. Bighorn deer are so much more comfortable than dog sleds. The sleds are really..." Shiloh rubbed her ass—they were always protected by the thick padding, and they didn't break at all. She pretended to say: "The saddle on the deer's back can be hot and very comfortable. It will help you recover from your injury. Would you like to try it?"

"Jiangu clansman is afraid of heights." Dagon said.

"Ai, Jiangu clansman is really troublesome." Shiloh pushed Dagon, then squeezed inside, and said, "Just keep going north, you look at the road, I'll take advantage of the sun now. , it's not too cold, go to sleep."

"You go to sleep." Dagon reached out to cover her tightly, then gripped the reins tightly, keeping the dogs in the front and the deer in the back. He sometimes looked at the distant horizon, and sometimes at Shiroai around him, but neither the majestic snow scene nor the beautiful elves could completely occupy his mind.

He was still thinking about Bud, the recipe he mentioned, and the travel journal called "The Journey to the Three Rivers".

He was wondering if Bard wanted to die and couldn't die, he was wondering if the Prime Minister had already got the rune, the heavy crossbow and the elf card, why let Bard live, why allow--even let-- — Bud is making trouble for himself outside?
Did Ais Iron's contract happen before, or after? What is the content of the contract?
