Throne of Vientiane Civilization
Chapter 990: Strange
Although they are both in the temperate zone, the winter in Black Moon City is probably even colder than that in the southern border where the lowest temperature will not drop below zero.
At this moment, in the Qinzheng Hall, Zhou Xu was roasting a fire while reading the latest report sent back from the southern border.
It naturally also contained the results of the interrogation of the rat nobles.
After reading it, Zhou Xu handed the report to Silk beside him.
"Qubing, Bowen, take a look at this report."
Hearing this, Huo Qubing and Li Bowen both temporarily put down their work and read the front-line report handed over one by one.
During this period, Huo Qubing had just read half of it and frowned.
After the two of them finished reading it one by one, Zhou Xu raised his hand.
"Tell me what you think."
In response, Huo Qubing and Li Bowen quickly exchanged glances, and then Huo Qubing spoke first...
"Strange, this approach itself makes me incomprehensible."
Huo Qubing said while sorting out his thoughts.
"Each force has its own purpose in starting a war. The fundamental reason is nothing more than the word 'interest'. Even if the ratmen and lizardmen are sworn enemies and there is an irreconcilable hatred between them, it is difficult to understand the practice of completely risking the lives of the entire clan and even destroying themselves."
At this point, Huo Qubing paused.
"The report mentioned that the ratman clan leader's temperament has changed drastically. I think there may be something strange about it, but I don't know what it is."
After listening, Li Bowen on the side also nodded in agreement.
"I have the same idea as Lord Huo."
In response, Zhou Xu also nodded and said nothing.
Huo Qubing's words basically expressed his doubts.
Combined with the information, he even suspected that the clan leader of the corrupt clan was used as a gun by someone.
But at this moment, it is obviously unclear who is behind the trouble.
【How about asking Bam? 】
He hadn't seen Bam for a long time.
After all, Bam was not his subordinate, nor did he work for him.
In addition to the restrictions of the contract with the Dragon God Ceylon, Zhou Xu's core idea for Bam was to raise him to adulthood, complete the contract with the Dragon God Ceylon, and then do whatever he wanted!
Based on this premise, Bam himself was also a dead otaku, and most of the time, he ate and slept in the temple.
Occasionally, he wanted to move around, at most he would just take a stroll in the rainforest around the temple, and he didn't want to go any further.
In Bam's words, he might be in danger if he went out, and the rainforest area centered on the temple, with the barrier set up by the Dragon God Ceylon, was the safest place for him.
Although Zhou Xu felt that Bam was just trying to find a reason for himself to be a dead otaku, it was undeniable that he did save himself a lot of trouble by staying at home like this, at least he didn't have to worry about what would happen to this kid.
Zhou Xu always had a knot in his heart if he didn't figure out the matter of the evil demon.
Now that this idea has come up, Zhou Xu will leave as soon as he says he will. He will set off the next morning.
Across the grassland is the rainforest area. The distance between the two sides is not too far. If you move quickly, it won't take much time.
During the period, Zhou Xu passed by the plain farm and just took a casual look while riding past. He didn't go in to inspect.
At this time, the farmers who have been busy for half a year are taking a holiday and resting. There is no need to disturb them.
Maintaining the efficiency of movement, Zhou Xu soon arrived at the post station outside the rainforest area.
Unlike other post stations equipped with horses and carriages, a major feature of the southern border is that the post stations are generally equipped with velociraptors and monitors.
Because the monitors, as a transport unit, have the ability to transport goods in a complex rainforest environment, the rainforest area has not been built on a large scale, which directly saves this batch of labor and funds.
However, this also means that everyone who comes here has to switch to a velociraptor or monitor if they don't want to walk in with their hardworking legs.
Of course, compared with the money and labor required for large-scale road construction, this is nothing.
Zhou Xu was in a hurry and tried to save as much as possible. He took several elf knights led by Silk and rode a giant lizard and quickly entered the city area.
Although there were no city walls here, the scale had long been comparable to that of a city, so for the convenience of calling and marking, Zhou Xu directly named this place "Temple City".
At this time, the group led by Zhou Xu were all dressed in casual clothes, focusing on a low profile.
Although the population living in Temple City is mainly lizardmen, there are also many humans who come and go on a daily basis and even live directly in Temple City. Therefore, Zhou Xu and his arrival did not attract the attention of the lizardmen residents.
Maintaining a certain efficiency, the group soon arrived outside the temple, and the blue lizard guards guarding outside had already noticed their presence.
Seeing this, Silk was not ambiguous. He first took off his hat, revealed his identity as a grassland elf, and then took out the token and walked over.
The token in their hands, plus their identity as grassland elves, was enough to prove their origins.
The blue lizard guards who confirmed this suddenly changed their expressions. Their first reaction was to salute, but they were stopped by Silk in time.
"Your Majesty is traveling low-key this time, so we should save some things if possible."
Speaking of this, Silk seemed to have remembered something and immediately added another sentence.
"Let someone familiar lead the way."
Hearing this, the captain on duty here stood up without saying a word.
With the captain on duty in front of them, they walked smoothly all the way and arrived at the temple smoothly.
Outside the temple, Zhou Xu had already heard a series of snoring like thunder.
"Good guy, have you been sleeping since the morning?"
Almost at the same time he said this, the snoring in the temple instantly subsided, and then a somewhat confused voice sounded.
"Wrong! I haven't gotten up yet, you woke me up."
As he spoke, accompanied by heavy footsteps, a slightly fat body appeared in front of Zhou Xu.
It was a white dragon with an estimated length of nearly five meters, but the overly fat body completely destroyed his original agility and greatly reduced his appearance.
Although Zhou Xu's main idea throughout the whole process was to train Bam to adulthood and then just send him away.
But now seeing Bam like this, he couldn't help but say...
"Bam, shouldn't you lose weight?"
"Lose weight?"
Hearing this, Bam looked down at his fat body and twisted it twice.
"Well, wait a minute."
As he spoke, a burst of white light emanated from Bam's body. When the light faded, a graceful and spiritual white dragon appeared in front of Zhou Xu.
"Done."
