Chapter 280: Crimson Snow Night (1)


Chapter 280: Crimson Night One In the morning, it suddenly snowed heavily, adding a bit of mysterious anticipation to the upcoming big show tonight.

The snow was huge, and it seemed to be without warning, and the snow flakes fluttered in the sky, but in one morning, the world turned into a vast white plain.

In the Academy of Magic, Chen Daolin wore a thick leather jacket, looking like a bloated bear in winter, and he held the elf who was also dressed like a snowball tightly with one hand.

Barossa wore a thick leather jacket, and her furry collar almost covered most of her small face, revealing only a pair of big sparkling eyes, and a pair of playful and small pointed ears were revealed in the ends of her hair, but they were frozen red in this icy day.

Chen Daolin looked back at Barossa, his eyes showed a trace of tenderness, walked over, gently hugged the elf, stretched out his hands to hold her face, covered her ears with his hands, and warmed her face, before leaning over and kissing Barossa's cherry lips gently.

Barossa's eyes were a little intoxicated, and then she looked at Chen Daolin blankly, as if she didn't understand why this man suddenly became so gentle.

"It's rare for my hometown to have such a lot of snow."

Chen Daolin smiled lightly, looked at the thicker and thicker snow on the ground, and said slowly: "The weather there has always been not very good, there is a lot of haze, and it is rare to see such clean snow in winter. ” "Darling, do you like snow," Barossa looked at him.

Chen Daolin smiled and did not answer, but asked rhetorically: "What about you, do you like it?"

The elf pursed his lips and smiled, and winked at Chen Daolin: "You can forget, my hometown, but in the frozen forest, it snows heavily every winter, and when it snows, the big round lake will freeze, and we will play on the ice on the lake in winter, and my brother will make me pointy shoes out of gallons of wood, so that I can wear them and skate on the ice, and the people in our tribe say that my ice dance is the most beautiful." ” Looking at Barossa's little face with some excitement, and a little smug in his eyes, Chen Daolin smiled slightly, pointed to the lake next to his residence, and said with a smile: "This snow may be going to fall for a while, if you wait for this lake to freeze, you can show me." ” "Hmm" The elf nodded softly and threw himself into Chen Daolin's arms.

Chen Daolin felt that the body of the girl in his arms was trembling slightly, and suddenly his heart moved, and he guessed Barossa's thoughts, and said softly: "Are you homesick?"

"Well, I miss my brother."

Barossa looked up.

Chen Daolin smiled: "I promise you, when this New Year's celebration is over, the spring flowers will bloom, and I will take you back to the frozen forest to see your brother." ” Barossa shook her head: "I can't go back" The elf's eyes were a little melancholy, and he said in a low voice: "I ran out with you, it was against the clan rules of the tribe, if I go back, my brother will definitely kill you." ” "Don't worry, your man is very capable now, and he can't be killed easily."

Chen Daolin laughed.

Chen Daolin seemed to smile very easily, then turned around and waved his hand, and said loudly: "Let's go, let's get on the road" Hook and Chuck slowly moved a large box out of the house and loaded it into the wagon.

Chen Daolin looked at the box, and his eyes narrowed.

"What the hell is in this, sir?"

On the side, the little maid Xia Xia came over, this little girl wore a fluffy hat, and I don't know if it was Chen Daolin's bad taste, so she deliberately added a pair of cat ears to this hat, making this already clever and cute little girl look like a cat.

Chen Daolin deliberately touched the pair of cat ears on Xia Xia's head, and said with a smile: "The secret weapon, you can naturally see it at night." ” Xia Xia tilted her head a little dissatisfied.

The little girl was still a little afraid of the cold, so she held a copper hand warmer in her arms, kept hiding her feet, looked at Chen Daolin, and couldn't help but say: "On such a cold day, Mr. has to work hard to compete with that Anthony, I think that Anthony is not a good person, and he must be beaten to pieces today." ” Saying that, the girl couldn't help but look at Chen Daolin curiously, although Chen Daolin was dressed bloated, but he didn't shrink his head at all, and couldn't help but say, "Aren't you afraid of the cold?"

Chen Daolin is naturally not afraid of the cold, and Brother Darling, whose physique is already as strong as a demonic beast, is now invulnerable, but he can basically do it without invasion of cold and heat.

"It's snowing, you have to dress like this to be appropriate."

Chen Daolin pouted.

"Good snowfall" Standing in front of the imperial city, Paning, who was wearing the armor of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, gently stretched out his hand, and his cold eyes looked at a snowflake falling on his fingers, his fingertips were slightly cool, and he saw this snowflake melt rapidly under the body temperature of his fingers, Paning's eyes seemed to have changed a little, and finally sighed, with white breath in his mouth, and said softly.

To the south of the Imperial City, beyond the east side of Triumph Street, in this area where the powerful gathered, in the midst of a palatial mansion, a roaring fire rose in the fireplace, and a man with a brain was watching the crackling and bursting sparks slightly startled.

Despite the snow and ice outside, but the warmth inside the house, the Count of Rosebellia, wearing only a plain white thin robe, held a cup of green "hero's blood" in his hand, and slowly drank it all.

Then he slowly walked to the window, glanced out the window, and smiled, with a chill in his laughter.

"Good snowfall" In the middle of the palace, the emperor stood on the terrace, surrounded by snow, and the handsome emperor was dressed in a black bearskin cloak, and white snowflakes fell on his hair and shoulders, and in a few moments, the emperor almost turned into a snowman.

However, just ten paces behind him, two rows of golden-armored warriors with sharp blades did not move, and no one dared to step forward to disturb the contemplation of the Imperial Supreme.

Only Pete, who was also standing behind the emperor, was also covered in snow, like a snowman.

After a long time, the emperor let out a long sigh, the white breath exhaled from his mouth rose, turned around, glanced at Pete, who already knew that his lips were purple, and smiled lightly: "This snow, it is raining very well." ” "What does Your Majesty mean?"

The emperor's eyes changed, his voice turned low, and he said faintly: "In such weather, no matter how much blood is shed, as soon as the snow washes away, it will be covered up." ” "So Your Majesty has made up your mind."

On the other side of the emperor, Clarke, who was dressed in a red court mage robe, stood there, snowflakes were flying all over the sky, but none of them could fall on him, Clark looked at the emperor, and there seemed to be a faint melancholy in his cloudy old eyes.

"Well, I made up my mind."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and seemed to smile, his smile seemed to be very relaxed and plain, but the words that could be said were as loud as iron, and the words were like knives "The history books of future generations, there should be a stroke tonight" The Triumph Avenue in front of the palace has been put under martial law, and the soldiers of the city guard and the police station have closed the road at both ends of the Triumph Street, and civilians are not allowed to enter.

Only in the evening will it be opened for civilians to pour into the Imperial City Square to watch the fireworks of the New Year's Eve celebrations.

At this moment, the huge Triumph Street was deserted, and only occasionally luxurious carriages drove into the street surrounded by guards.

The wheels crushed the snow one after another, and the streets that were originally snow-white gradually became muddy.

Sitting in the car, looking at the road outside the car, the elf frowned slightly, and couldn't help but sigh: "Good snow, why is it so dirty." ” Chen Daolin looked at the outline of the palace that was getting closer and closer, and then said softly: "The wheels are rolling, and you always have to run over something.

This snow is nothing but innocent. ” Naturally, the carriage had to get off before it reached the palace.

With Chen Daolin's title and status, he has not yet enjoyed the treatment of being able to ride a car and ride a horse in the imperial city.

When Chen Daolin and Barossa got off the carriage one after another and stood side by side in front of the imperial city, they saw it from a distance A heroic Panin, dressed in shiny armor and fully armed, with a sword hanging from his waist and pursing his lips tightly, stood in front of the palace square in the cold wind of winter.

The long bright red feather on his helmet fluttered gently in the wind.

Just behind Panin, the Red Feather Rider of the Imperial Forest Army was patrolling back and forth in front of the palace.

"General Panin" Chen Daolin got into the carriage and nodded at Panin.

Paning's expression was not very good-looking, he looked at Chen Daolin coldly, his eyes showed a hint of complexity, and finally shook his head: "You still haven't listened to my warning." ” Chen Daolin was speechless, and Panin didn't seem to have the intention to talk deeply, his eyes crossed Chen Daolin and fell on Barossa's body, and then the cold man finally frowned slightly, and pointed to the palace gate behind him: "Master Darling, please, His Majesty the Emperor should wait for you to meet you."

When Chen Daolin walked past him, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Your words that day" The corners of Paning's eyes were raised, but his eyes did not look at Chen Daolin, but looked at the square in the distance.

And when Chen Daolin had already crossed Paning's side, he suddenly heard a subtle cold and hard voice coming into his ears.

"If something happens, don't come out, protect yourself first" Walking into the palace, you can feel the ubiquitous killing atmosphere, although the ribbons flutter between the pavilions and pavilions, and the servants who come and go are also wearing brand new winter clothes.

It's just that the team of Red Feather Cavalry of the Royal Forest Army has all covered their dirt, and the knife is out of the sheath and the bow is wound, especially the killing aura revealed between walking, but it can't be hidden.

Especially for a magician like Chen Daolin, who has a keen mental power.

He faintly felt that the atmosphere of the entire palace was like a clockwork that had been tightened to the extreme, and it was about to burst out And the palace covered in silver makeup seems to have added a bit of solemnity.

Chen Daolin thought about Paning's warning, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he couldn't figure out where this uneasiness came from.

Even if the emperor wants to announce the crown prince tonight, even if someone wants to jump over the wall in a hurry, and the emperor wants to kill me, he won't be able to kill me.

I'm a good citizen Just after entering the gate of the imperial city, a square, there is the triumphal victory hall, the largest building in the imperial palace.

It is said that this hall was built by the founding emperor of the empire thousands of years ago when the country was founded, and it is magnificent, splendid and magnificent.

Historically, all the great ceremonies in the palace have been held here.

It gets dark early in winter, and Chen Daolin estimates that it is only about five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky is already getting dark.

Under the guidance of the palace attendants, Chen Daolin and others came to the front of the main hall.

Hook and Chuck, as servants, were naturally not qualified to enter the banquet hall of this hall, so they could only be led to the side hall next to them and wait with the guards and attendants of other wealthy families.

It was Xia Xia, but because Chen Daolin reported the identity of his sister, he was able to follow Chen Daolin and Barossa into the main hall together.

There are not many people in the banquet hall, and some dignitaries with distinguished status will always arrive later.

Despite this, when Chen Daolin walked into the hall, he still attracted the attention of many people.

The arrival of this man who is destined to be in the limelight tonight immediately caused a stir and a mouthful.

Chen Daolin took off his thick leather jacket, and what made people even more surprised was that he actually wore one under the leather jacket Leather Although the style is somewhat chic and looks a little lighter and more ornate, there is no doubt that this is the standard samurai attire After Chen Daolin's physical fitness changed, he was naturally not the waste wood otaku he was in the real world back then, the original sub-health and waist fat have disappeared, and his figure has become strong and straight.

I can't see it in the mage robe, but at this moment, I am wearing a samurai leather armor, although the appearance is a little ordinary, but it also has a heroic taste Chen Daolin didn't want to talk to others at this moment, and was about to take Barossa to a corner to find a place to sit and rest.

But at this moment, almost immediately behind Chen Daolin, a group of guests strode in.

This is a group of young officers, everyone is wearing the standard officer uniform of the army, wearing epaulettes, a sash on the chest, and a slender sword at the waist.

It seems that their military ranks are not high, and most of them are very young, but Chen Daolin saw two of them at a glance.

"Camanro Puppy" Chen Daolin laughed, and the two of them also saw Chen Daolin, and immediately broke away from their companions and strode over.

Carman looked like he had gained weight again, and his original double chin had gradually developed into the third layer, but Rodriguez IV looked a little thinner.

Both of them were wearing the officer uniforms of the Northern Storm Legion, Chen Daolin already had some understanding of the rank and military system of the Roland Empire, and Kaman's military rank was one level higher than that of Luo Xiaopu, so he smiled and said: "You two actually arrived, why don't you tell me Hey Kaman, you have been promoted again" Kaman laughed, but before he could speak, Luo Xiaogou had already said: "I arrived early this morning, I went to the military headquarters to report in the morning, and I came home and changed my clothes." ” Kaman then said: "It has snowed heavily in the north, and the ice and snow have closed the road, and the road has been delayed for a few days, otherwise I would have come back a few days earlier, but I know that you have a big show to sing tonight, and I am very worried on the way, I am afraid that it will be too late to come back." ” After a pause, the fat man's eyes looked Chen Daolin up and down, and said with a smile: "Hey, when you put on this leather armor, you really look like a martial artist."

Well, the shelf is good, I don't know how it is."

The three of them laughed, but Luo Xiaogou lowered his voice and looked at Chen Daolin, his eyes were also a little strange: "Miss Luodell, she came back earlier, you" "I've seen it."

Speaking of Luo Daer, Chen Daolin suddenly felt a little big, and couldn't help complaining: "What does this girl want to do, do you want to hold me as a shield, she is playing so big this time, I can't catch it."

Luo Xiaogou and Kaman glanced at each other, their eyes were a little meaningful and complicated, and after a while, the fat man Kaman sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "Actually, that time from the East China Sea, we accompanied Rodel back to the north, but she often mentioned you." ” "Uh" Chen Daolin was stunned.

This is the meaning of Shenma But the two of them kept their mouths shut, and Chen Daolin didn't want to ask again. was silent for a while, and Luo Xiaogou's face became a little serious: "Goth is back with us." ” At the mention of Goth, Chen Daolin's heart suddenly tightened.

Gothic he knew, the emperor should have chosen him as the crown prince of the future crown prince "He went back with us, we were all from the Storm Legion, and we were on the road along the way, and we were almost delayed by the wind and snow.

He also came to the palace with us just now, and as soon as he entered the palace, he was called to meet His Majesty. ” The fat man Carman mentioned Goth, and his face still seemed to be a little unnatural, after all, when he went to participate in the Chengren Ceremony of Lodel, the fat man was severely repaired by Goth, and he was actually half-buried on the side of the road, which made the arrogant Uncle Carman really a little embarrassed.

Luo Xiaogou was a little more delicate, and couldn't help but whisper: "Daling we are in the north The news is blocked, you are here, but there is a rumor, what is the meaning of the word?"

Chen Daolin didn't want to answer, but after all, the two people in front of him were his good friends, and they were also one of his few friends in this strange world, after thinking about it, he nodded solemnly.

Luo Xiaogou and Kaman's faces suddenly changed greatly.

Luo Xiaopu's eyes showed a bit of strange brilliance, and even Kaman, who had been snorting at the goths, actually had a hint of joy on his eyebrows.

Chen Daolin frowned: "Hey, why are you two so happy, I thought you hated him very much." ” "It's a little annoying, but after all, I grew up with that dead-faced guy since I was a child, and even if I fight, I have a friendship.

Although it is not pleasing to the eye, but after all, everyone is from the same family, and most of the people in the Northern Storm Legion are from our tulip family, and the Gothic is also what we all want to see. ” Chen Daolin's heart moved.

Unexpectedly, this goth had so much support in the army, and it was no wonder that the emperor would choose him in the end.

The three of them chatted for a while, and a group of guests arrived at the gate again.

This time, it was a group of nobles who came in.

These people are all gorgeously dressed and extravagant, old and young, but each of them has a thorn flower badge on their clothes.

And there is another peculiarity: most of these people have blonde hair.

As soon as this group of people walked in, the conversation in the main hall was suddenly paused, and many complicated eyes were cast.

However, after this group of people came in, if there was no one around, their expressions were arrogant, and they slowly walked into the main hall, and went directly to the front, occupying the most eye-catching and middle position in the main hall.

"These people" Chen Daolin didn't know much about these aristocratic circles after all.

Carman and Luo Puppy glanced at each other, smiled wryly at the same time, and whispered, "These real Augustinians. ” The real Augustine As soon as Chen Daolin heard this name, his eyes suddenly contracted.

These people have heard this name countless times, and they have had several life and death adventures, all of which have something to do with these guys.

All Chen Daolin couldn't help but look there a few more times.

This group of people is really quite royal, with luxurious clothes and seemingly polite manners, but in fact, they are secretly arrogant.

"That old man is the Grand Duke of Nanco Augustine, and he is the highest ranking of the group.

The middle-aged man standing beside him was Duzel Augustine, the Marquis, this person is the most powerful, in fact, he is the real leader of these people" Luo Xiaogou and Kaman are children of the family after all, and they pointed out the identities of these people to Chen Daolin one by one.

With intuition, Chen Daolin's attention immediately fell on the guy named Duzel Augustine.

This middle-aged man stood in the group of "Augustine", who seemed to be the shortest and most inconspicuous, and his gestures did not have the kind of "royal arrogance" that was deliberately publicized, and he seemed to be inconspicuous, but Chen Daolin noticed him It's just because Chen Daolin discovered that there was a faint fluctuation of magic power on this person's body If he wasn't a magician, then he must be carrying some kind of magic equipment of no lower grade And what surprised Chen Daolin even more was that this Duzel actually looked at him.

Then, the marquis, gently raising the staff in his hand, nodded to himself, and smiled peacefully.

Chen Daolin didn't know what he meant, but he also smiled slightly and nodded in return, this Duzel glanced at Chen Daolin deeply, and then turned around.

With the arrival of this group of "real Augustine", the atmosphere in this venue suddenly became a little strange.

Everyone knows that some time ago, these "real Augustinians" jumped up and down on the issue of the crown prince, and these guys have always been dissatisfied with the current royal family, especially after the Gretin family was directly wiped out by the emperor's anger, all these "real Augustinians" all of a sudden completely stood on the opposite side of the emperor.

But the problem is that these days, judging from the situation, it is clear that the Goths have great hope of winning In particular, the emperor summoned Goths back to Beijing, and deliberately sent Carmen, the dean of the Academy of Magic, far away at this special point in time Such a move, people with a little heart can vaguely guess a few points.

Moreover, His Royal Highness the Foodie Prince, after his return, lived in seclusion, never saw any powerful people, did not form a party, and did not participate in disputes.

I heard that I didn't come out of the kitchen every day in the royal courtyard.

In this way, everyone already has a rough guess about tonight's ending.

Since the emperor is already a Gothic, these "real Augustinians" can't make waves In this case, it is better to stay as far away from them as possible, so as not to catch fire.

But at this time, the door of the main hall was suddenly pushed open, and a figure ran in in a hurry, because it was too fast, and even stumbled a little.

This person is also a nobleman, with blonde hair and gorgeous clothes, after coming in, he went straight to the group of "Augustine", Chen Daolin can see from his hair color and clothes that this person must be Augustine's gang.

Sure enough, the guy ran over, out of breath, and even the basic etiquette of the nobility was forgotten.

Then, he exclaimed a sentence that directly shocked the audience "It's a big deal, the Thunder God's Whip has entered the city, and the Wangcheng Guards have changed defenses and handed over, and the city defense has been taken over by the Thunder God's Whip, and the Wangcheng Guards are being ordered to withdraw from the city military camp and station." rumble The news was suddenly like a thunderclap, and the audience was in shock Good news: There is good news when the big finally comes, I finally recognized the fact that I was lazy, and decided to paint the wall with dung, work hard to make money, and strive to become a real local tyrant as soon as possible ` To be continued
