The Emerald Tower
Vol 2 Chapter 359: Between offense and defense Ⅰ
When the sun jumped out of the horizon, the ‘ancestral home’ of the Zelgaon family located in the Emerald Mountains was bathed in the sun at a later time.
The lofty and towering mountains covered by dense vegetation always fight for the sun at the first time.
In the green, with a faint fragrance, a unique breath of life, it began to spread in the thick fog of the morning.
It's refreshing, and I can't help but take a long breath.
Dean left the study and stood in the courtyard, taking a long breath of wandering in it. Not far behind him, Harlem, who was aliased as West Drew, served as a housekeeper with due diligence.
Although it was only a few days' work, Harlem has fully integrated into this role.
After all, Dean didn't limit his side as a wizard, so it seemed to Harlem that it was a good life to escape the control of the Ring of Mobius, enough to make him happy.
As for the face of the wizard?
After joining the Ring of Mobius, Harlem no longer had such a thing.
Cry, cry...
The chirping of birds clearly passed through the illusion magic circle and fell into Dean's ears.
Dean raised his head and looked at the more verdant and pleasant forest outside. In his vision, small figures were shuttled among them, chasing and fighting for food.
"Early bird gets the worm!"
In the same morning, the Grand Duke Swordsman, who had practiced swordsmanship, walked to Dean's side naturally, followed Dean's gaze to look at everything outside the illusion magic circle, and immediately said subconsciously.
"Early bug. Eaten by birds!"
And Dean responded with a smile.
The Grand Duke's swordsmanship was startled. Obviously, he didn't expect Dean to respond like this. Then, she thought about it carefully, and felt that such words seemed to make sense.
Moreover, the Grand Duke Swordsman glanced at the corner of her mouth and smiled, but Dean, who was indifferent in her eyes, naturally found something wrong.
"Someone has followed?"
The Grand Duke Swordsman asked instead using gestures.
"Well, a lot of Chad has discovered a lot, and there are some that Chad can't find... They are all staring here!"
Dean answered with the same gesture.
This is an advanced sign language belonging to the Grand Duke of Jade. On weekdays, the Grand Duke Swordsman deliberately gave Dean to Dean, even though he had already learned it, he didn't need to learn it.
"Because of the previous ‘fog’?"
Although it was a questioning word, the Grand Duke Swordsman was extremely sure.
"Ok!"
Dean made an affirmative gesture.
"Not just the Ring of Mobius?"
A hint of worry appeared on the face of Grand Duke Swordsman.
Because she knows Dean's entire plan and understands what kind of enemies Dean needs to face next, and among these enemies, if there are more, it will definitely become the key point of the entire battle.
"When I came up with this plan, I was to attract all the people from the Emerald Capital and the Ring of Mobius in the three southern counties. Some of the accidents. I also anticipated that, no matter how many more enemies there are. . For me, it's all the same... kill!"
Obviously it should be a word of relief, but when Dean's mouth is upturned, it exudes a strong killing intent.
"Be careful, after all, neither I nor Vandi can help you..."
The Grand Duke Swordsman ordered.
"Of course, if you don't leave, how dare they appear, so I can at least be sure of their general strength... and that's enough!"
Dean smiled, and the strong killing intent disappeared instantly, turning to gentleness.
Ling couldn't help but start looking at the Grand Duke Swordsman Dean.
Full of killing intent, modest and gentle.
The two extremely strong conversion contrasts made it difficult for the Archduke Swordsman to adapt.
However, in general, she doesn't hate it.
Then, the subconscious Archduke Swordsman persuaded Dean and the Countess's relationship.
"You and Vandi have nothing, just some unnecessary disputes..."
The Grand Duke Swordsman opened his mouth and said.
"I have never targeted Count Kathu, nor have any improper thoughts. Even, I am willing to have such a friend, but... instructor, don’t you think that you should persuade Kathu instead of persuading me. Earl Qiu? I think she is too stubborn than me!"
After changing the subject, Dean smiled more naturally.
"Vatican is more stubborn than you? Do you think you can stand up like this? Lord Zelgaon, who is as stubborn as a donkey, is a man, he should be more generous, especially when facing women!"
The Grand Duke Swordsman rolled his eyes and joked.
"Madam? It depends on who it is! If it is you, I don't mind, but the famous flame orchid of Earl Katchu... , I think all she has is the appearance of a lady, as for the inside..."
Dean shrugged as he spoke and said he would not comment.
The meaning couldn't be clearer.
The Grand Duke Swordsman frowned and thought for a while, and finally shook his head with a wry smile.
Because she found that there was no way to refute it.
Then, Dean smiled and staggered the subject, pulling the content into a little miscellaneous thing.
Dean is clear about the kindness of the Grand Duke Swordsman.
He understands that the other party is for him to be well integrated into Grand Duke Jade's command. After all, with the support of the Countess Katchu, such integration is a natural fit.
However, Dean didn't think it was a good idea.
First of all, he did not think that Countess Kathu would accept his'apology' easily.
Second, even if he accepts his ‘apology’, he will be marked as a Katchu faction, which is definitely not what Dean wants.
Under Grand Duke Emerald, although there are fewer struggles, the differences between families still exist.
Although more harmonious. But in the final analysis. Some things will not change.
The three families of Katchu, Meili and Deta. None of Dean's choice.
In other words, Dean didn't want to group himself into these three families.
He is willing to take orders from the Emerald Grand Duke, in order to save his life.
But this does not mean that others will do.
Therefore, Dean must be outside of the three major families under the command of Grand Duke Jade.
This seemingly difficult thing is actually not difficult for Dean at this moment. After all, he already has a very high profile personal strength.
As for family strength?
Seymour this united family. It gave Dean some ideas.
Looking through the diary left by the ‘Ancestor’ all night last night, Dean still had some gains.
At least, he understood the composition of Seymour's united family.
He also had some clues about the navigation skills.
Of course, it is obviously difficult to gather the Seymour United Family in this way, and Dean only has a preliminary immature idea at this moment.
It will take some time to prepare.
However, these are the thoughts in Dean's heart, and of course he cannot speak frankly with the Grand Duke's swordsman.
Therefore, in ten minutes of small talk. When the old butler signaled that breakfast was ready, this topic was completely over.
Breakfast continued the richness of yesterday's dinner.
Excessive meat is replaced by vegetables and mushrooms. Of course, there are some fried eggs.
Eggs that are not normal poultry, similar to raptor eggs.
"This was found by Jerry last night. Not only is he good at archery, but he is also a very good hunter!"
The old butler still explained.
And this made the countess feel even more unpleasant.
Therefore, the whole breakfast was eaten with relish, but the countess was a little distracted.
And this state lasted until the two sides separated
"Are you sure you did this?"
Glancing at the Grand Duke Swordsman next to him, the countess asked Dean.
"These guys have very little courage. If the'White Rose and Flame Orchid' are all here, they will definitely choose to retreat wisely, and then look for opportunities that are more difficult for me to defend... Far better, take advantage of it now! "
Dean answered with a smile.
The countess looked at Dean again up and down.
As if seeing Dean for the first time.
"You have proved your courage, even if it can't change my initial view of you. If you are still alive, come to me to get your things!"
After speaking, the countess turned and took the horse away.
The guards around immediately followed.
The Grand Duke Swordsman nodded at Dean and left with the horse.
Suddenly, Dean and his party were left in the entire Emerald Mountain Range.
"Sidru, you took Tom and Jerry to prepare, Chad, you left the necessary manpower, and the rest of the people started to rest at night. We have a big battle!"
As Dean spoke, he turned and walked towards the master bedroom of the manor.
As for the incoming enemy?
The other party will definitely watch the Countess and the Grand Duke Swordsman enter Katchu County and settle down in a real sense. They will take action after confirming that this is not a strategy.
And according to the distance from here to Katchu County, even if the message is transmitted back and forth at the fastest speed, it still needs to be after dark.
Therefore, Dean still has one day to prepare.
And this is enough for Dean~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After all, the manor where he is located, although remote and small, is indeed one of the other houses of the Zelgaon family.
There is quite a lot of magic protection here.
Even because of the age and lack of maintenance, most of them can no longer be used.
However, only the small part left was enough for Dean to use.
At least, it is more than enough to deal with some leftover enemies.
And those real enemies are naturally made by him himself!
Even if it can be solved by defensive magic, Dean needs to do it himself. After all, XP can only be obtained by him, not relying on the magic circle left by others.
ps first update~ (to be continued...)
