Path of The Dragonborn

Just one night's time, fleeting.

The next day, four hours before the final of the competitive competition began early in the morning, around the Wangdu Arena, there was already a large crowd of spectators looking forward to the final.

Whether it is on the street or the end of the alley, almost everyone's faces are filled with excited smiles and looks of expectation, waiting for the climax of this grand event to arrive as scheduled.

The final will not start until noon. As usual, Estir, Joshua and the others will go to the underground waterway of the royal capital with them. There are various types of warcraft and various complex terrains, which can be used as a good warm-up and tactical exercise place. However, today's final is of great importance-not only for the glory and rewards of the champion, but also for the opportunity to sneak into the palace-this game can only be won, not lost.

"And... Heliga and Fei... have also come to the king's capital..." Thinking of the scene outside the lounge just now, Estelle was still a little happy. As the war is approaching, it would be great to talk to old friends and relieve the pressure.

Two hours ago.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, when the sun just came up, Heliga and Fei had already got up early, waiting specially at the gate of the Royal Capital Arena. Unsurprisingly, two familiar figures were seen wandering nearby early in the morning.

"Hey." Heliga hid his breath, walked around behind the two of them, and made a little strange sound, making Estir's ponytail jump in fright.

"Yeah!" But when she turned around and saw the familiar figure, Estelle didn't mean to be angry at all, but was a little happy: "It's you... It's been a long time... Where's Xiao Fei?"

"On the bench over there." Heliga pointed to the small park outside the arena. Fei was dozing off on the chair. "Looking at you, did you expect us to come back to you?" Heliga He blinked, "Captain Yulia told you, right?"

"Yes." Estiel looked a little dazed, "I didn't expect you to know each other..."

"It's just a coincidence. It happened that she was rescued from the secret service of the Ministry of Intelligence... This is also the guide of the goddess." Heliga sighed, if he didn't happen to save the captain, he was half persuaded and half forced to exchange information. With the establishment of a cooperative relationship, things may not go so smoothly.

"So, do you know our plan?" Joshua heard something in Heliga's words.

"Yes... I know that you will use the rewards of the competition champion to enter the palace and find ways to meet with the queen... I also know that you have secretly investigated the information of several key members of the intelligence department, and you know..."

"Hush!" Joshua looked a little flustered, "Speak down!"

"What are you afraid of? There is no watcher around here." Heliga shrugged. "Well, you guys can do your best...Although I want to say that, that Lieutenant Lawrence...Tsk, it's a bit tricky."

"That guy is the one who shows up repeatedly and hinders us." Joshua shook his head. "It's a blessing not to fight him at the Reston Fortress..."

"Fortunately, you have Mr. Jin, and Olivier's strength is stronger than expected...There is still hope." Heliga comforted, "The most important thing is that you have a reason to win, right?"

"Yeah... I've reached this point, there's nothing to be afraid of." Esther patted her cheek hard, "By the way, you waited here early in the morning... Is it to cheer us on purpose?"

"If I specifically go to find you, I will go directly to the hotel where you are staying." Heliga blinked mischievously, "After all, I sent that letter. Actually, I'm waiting for another friend here. Don't worry, I I'll watch your performance." He took out the pass from his arms, trembling, and Heliga smiled.

"Ah...Thank you!" Estil was a little flushed with excitement, "Waiting for our good news!"

"Ah, that's right." Heliga seemed to think of something suddenly. "Did Miss Yulia tell you... about Colonel Richard?"

"What's the problem?" Joshua was confused.

"It seems that I didn't say...or maybe it's too late." Heliga murmured, "Estil, do you remember how you felt when you were at war with Yanilas?"

"Ah...Of course I remember..." Estil pulled her face down, "Sister Yanilas' offensive is very fast, it's difficult to parry..."

"Then you must be mentally prepared..." Heliga shook his head, "After all, in the kingdom's martial arts circle, he is known for his extremely fast sword drawing... The speed is by no means inferior to Yanilas , And the strength of the attack and the mastery of skills are likely to be better than Yani Lasi...Although this possibility is very small, if you encounter it, if you don't have enough psychological preparation, you will suffer a big loss."

"...I understand, I will discuss with Mr. Jin." Joshua nodded, this information was not known to them before.

"That's good..." Hailijia nodded, and then smiled again: "Come on, I wish you prosperity."

——————————————————————————

"Huh... they're gone..." Seeing Estelle and Joshua disappeared from their sights with Jin and Olivier who came to meet, Haliga let out a sigh and walked back to being half asleep. From the state of Fei: "Next, before the start of the finals, just wait here to verify my guess."

"What...what... guess..." Fei's voice was inaudible, like a cat who ran all night and was lazy during the day.

"Ah... This is too exaggerated..." It may be that the overwork of the past few days has made Fei's accumulated fatigue even worse. Heilijia finally helped her to lie down on the bench in the small courtyard and let her Sleep a little longer, "But forget it, I don't actually need to fight next..."

For Heliga, everything is ready now, only one thing is needed to prove his judgment.

As long as some familiar figures appear here today--

That means that Richard will implement the most risky part of his entire plan.

Once this part is successful, he will nominally control the supreme power of the kingdom. As for how to deal with the resistance of all parties in the future, how to deal with the doubts of Cassius and others, it is all future things.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, two familiar figures appeared in the park corresponding to the position of the gates of the second-floor box stands, which completely confirmed Heliga's judgment-Richard, it was time to do it.

Because, Maddoch workshop manager in Chase City and Collins principal of the Royal College of Denis in Lu'an both appeared in the crowd.
