Perhaps because of a bloody battle, the people of the Seventh Legion all had an extra bloody murderous aura.

Although the newly recruited soldiers did not deliberately show a fierce and vicious appearance, each of them exuded a fierce and fierce aura, which was different from the appearance of Sean when he had seen it. And when these people were gradually approaching Sean and the others, the leading commander also knew how to order some men to maintain order and disperse the crowd, so that the next possible battle would affect the innocent people.

Although I don't know what kind of mentality the other party has, but being able to be so cautious and meticulous at least proves that in the past year or so, this guy in front of him has obviously grown.

Soon, the crowd that was still queuing up to enter the city was dispersed to a place twenty or thirty meters away from Sean and the others.

If Blackstone seemed to be an extremely dangerous creature, I'm afraid the dispersed crowd would have chosen to look closer. Of course, not everyone will choose to watch, and many people are reluctant to pay the head fee of the silver coin, and choose to take advantage of the fact that the attention of the Seventh Legion is now attracted and enter the fortress of Tonys.

Sean's gaze swept around again, only to find that the little girl and what could be considered her parents had left. Sean just shook his head helplessly, after all, in a chaotic world where strength is respected, can you still expect these civilians who don't even have some identity to say anything for him?

As the crowd dispersed, the soldiers of the Seventh Legion gradually approached, and the commander on the other side naturally got closer and closer to Sean.

It's just that from beginning to end, his gaze was almost fixed on Blackstone and Marshmallow. From the blazing heat in his eyes when he looked at Black Stone and his doubts about the marshmallow, Sean could already tell that the other party was obviously the existence of a creature like the Dao Dao Dao Xing Dragon, but whether it was the species of the Mutant Emperor Dragon. It's hard to say, as for the marshmallow, it is a creature that even Sean doesn't know, and the other party obviously can't know it.

Therefore, soon the other party's eyes shifted to Rena's body, after all, Rena was standing next to Blackstone at this time, reaching out and patting Blackstone's body to calm it down. In terms of the temperament of the earth-walking dragon, being able to obey the commands and orders of a human so meekly then there is no doubt that Rena's identity is completely revealed, so that the other party's gaze at Rena is also full of a kind of heat. It's like looking at a possessions.

The creature of the Earth Dragon may not be peculiar to those empires that can form the Earth Dragon Legion, at most it represents strength and luck, after all, not everyone can become a member of the Earth Dragon Army. But for the people of Lane, the earth-walking dragon is a magical beast that simply represents a symbol of identity, status, strength and other aspects. To be able to own a Dragon, or a Follower of a Dragonrider, is a very respectable thing.

But it's a pity. This kind of monster is for the Lane people. It's still an existence that can't be forced. Of course, the reason for this result is not that the Earth Walking Dragon is difficult to find, on the contrary, there are several Earth Walking Dragon's nests in the territory of the Principality of Lane, and the real reason why the Earth Walking Dragon cannot be forced is that it is very difficult to tame the Earth Walking Dragon. This so-called difficulty refers to a taming technique, just like taming a wild horse, which requires special skills to be tamed.

And basically, on the southern continent, there are only two empires that have mastered this taming technique, the Millennium Covenant Empire and the Emilian Empire. Although there is also a kingdom called Satagastan that also has a dragoon legion, it is impossible to prove whether this country has mastered this technique, because the country has very little communication with the outside world, and in terms of the size of the dragoon army, there is still a big gap between the two empires.

However, this kingdom also has a huge advantage that the two empires do not have: the strong man of the kingdom of Satagastan is a real dragon knight.

It's not a rank like the Earth Dragon Knight, the Wyvern Dragon Knight, or the Holy Dragon Knight. It's the real dragon knight: the dragon knight.

Therefore, any country that wants to invade the Kingdom of Satagastan must face a problem: in front of Long Wei, any cavalry type of troops cannot go to the battlefield at all, and even if it is a pure infantry legion, it will also weaken the combat power to a certain extent in the face of Long Wei, so it is not enough for the Dragoon Legion of the Kingdom of Satagastan to charge. However, it is very subtle that the Kingdom of Satagastan has never shown any thoughts or signs of foreign aggression over the years, and they seem to be very content with the status quo, and its land area is still not much different from that of a principality, so over time no one wants to trouble the Kingdom of Satagastan.

At least, no one will go to trouble this country until the dragon in the palace of this kingdom dies.

And in today's Ryan Kingdom, there will never be more than five nobles who have earth-walking dragons or flying dragons, and there may be five people if you count Sean. It's just that the others are definitely ordinary earth-walking dragons and flying dragons, and they can't even be regarded as wurms in the strict sense. Because according to Sean's understanding, the definition of "wurm" on the Miracle Continent is that it has dragon bloodline, and magical beasts like Earthwalking Dragons and Flying Dragons that are so thin that there is almost no dragon bloodline are precisely defined as "dragon-like", just like "humanoids".

So Sean could understand the heat in the other party's eyes when he looked at Rena.

There is no doubt that the other party has obviously treated Rena and himself and the others as a small mercenary group.

Or rather, a mercenary group that was lucky enough to get an earth-walking dragon. If it weren't for the fact that he would normally serve one master throughout his life, Sean would have bet that the other party must have been thinking about how to kill Rena and take the Blackstone. After all, this method of killing people and selling goods is not unfamiliar to these nobles, and it can even be said to be easy to come by.

Of course, Sean will have this impression, and the most important thing is that the other party has such a criminal record.

Not long after, the other party had already brought a group of people from the Seventh Legion to Sean and the others. However, given that Sean and the others were wearing hooded cloaks commonly used by adventurers, and they did not lift the hoods at this time, the other party did not recognize the identities of Sean and others, of course, the most important thing is that the other party's eyes did not stay on Sean's body at all, but on Rena's body, and even Shephaneo and Cecilia ignored them.

Maybe in his eyes. The truly valuable people should be Rena and Blackstone.

As for a white lion, although it was a breed that he had never seen before, in his eyes, it was at best a third- or fourth-level demonic beast, which was not enough to make him excited. Of course, if it's a buy one get one free, then he will definitely not refuse, maybe this time he can go back as a gift.

"Which mercenary group are you from?" The old acquaintance standing in front of Sean opened his mouth with a standard official tone, "You actually dare to make trouble here in Tonis Fortress, aren't you afraid of being surrounded and suppressed by the kingdom's army?" Or rather. Do you think you can do whatever you want with a dragoon? ”

His voice was loud and full of the majesty of a superior person, and as soon as he came over, he immediately took the lead, which overlapped with the figure in Sean's impression. Originally, feeling the bloody murderous aura on the other party's body and the speed of reaction in dealing with things, Sean felt that the other party's military career might have really grown in the past half a year, but now it seems that even if it has grown. But this aristocratic temper and way of thinking did not fall either.

Sean and the others did not reply.

In this team, Sean's strength is the lowest. But his status is the highest. And the other three were actually used to Sean's command and orders, so Sean didn't speak, and the others didn't speak. However, they obviously turned their heads in favor of Sean, especially since Rena's hood had been lifted just now, so at this time, it was only judging by her gaze. The other party also knew that the person standing in the middle was the leader of this team.

"You're the leader of this mercenary group?" The other spoke again, his voice as arrogant as ever.

Sean didn't speak, but there were signs of a nod on his hooded head.

This move made a trace of gloom flash on the face of the young Seventh Army general. The momentum of the whole person has also become much more aggressive.

It was a bloody murderous aura that only those who really fought their way out on the battlefield would have, and combined with the growing majesty of the superior on his body, it could indeed cause an impressive and powerful aura of coercion to ordinary people. It's just a pity that the person he is facing now is Sean, so his powerful aura similar to not being angry and arrogant can't put any pressure on Sean at all.

But this time, the other party left a rare impression on Sean.

Because the other party did not take it by force, but began to think about it, and even used some shame means: "This is a special period, and if you go in like this, it will bring a lot of confusion and impact, so your pets must stay outside first, and you must go to the legion station with me to report first, and after you are sure that you are not in any danger at all, you will be allowed to stay in the fortress, but during your stay, these pets of yours are not allowed to enter the inner city, and must be fostered in the legion station, We'll have someone to guard you, but you'll have to pay a custodial fee afterwards. ”

This doesn't sound like there are any loopholes or flaws, but the other party doesn't say exactly how much the care fee needs to be paid. And Sean believes that the other party's eyes that looked at Rena just now are so hot, it must also be the identity of the Earth Dragon Knight of Zhilu Dao Reina, since Zhilu Dao is obviously very clear that once Xinglong recognizes the rider, it is unlikely to be tamed again, but the other party still wants to forcibly separate Rena and Blackstone, then this can only show that the other party either has some special means to think that he is sure to keep Blackstone, or he wants to try to use this means and methods to forcibly isolate the actions of Rena and himself and others, Facilitate his access and wooing.

But whether it's the former or the latter, at least it proves that this guy is really thinking about problems with his brain, and not just knowing how to take it by force like he did at the beginning.

In contrast, this eater looks more and more like a qualified nobleman.

"We'll only stay for one night at most." Sean finally couldn't help but speak, anyway, he basically knew the things he wanted to know, so naturally there was no need to pretend to be a pig, "I will leave Tonys Fortress tomorrow morning." ”

Hearing Sean's words, the young nobleman's brows furrowed again, and his gaze at Sean was a little more puzzled. In Sean's opinion, it was obvious that the other party was familiar with his voice and was a little more confused, after all, the incident in Tonis Fortress was not small. There have also been a few verbal exchanges between the two sides, so it's not uncommon to have a more or less impression.

However, the doubt quickly faded away—especially after he looked at the blackstone again.

"It's probably impossible." The young nobleman shook his head, "You'll probably have to stay for a few days just to report for review and inspection, and at least until we're sure you're dangerous, there's no way we'll let you enter the inner city, let alone leave the Tonis Fortress." After all, there will be a big banquet in the Kingdom of Lane in a while, so you should be prepared for a long stay. ”

Sean sighed slightly, unnecessary. He really didn't want to reveal his identity so soon. This is not only what he thinks, even Asuna, Hatch, Koth and other big names choose to arrive secretly, and even if they go on the road together, everyone chooses to pretend to meet inadvertently after leaving the fortress, no matter what, they have to avoid giving people a sense of faction as much as possible.

So if here Sean reveals his identity. Then it is probably impossible for him to go on the road with Asuna and the others again. And this is exactly what Sean wants to try to avoid. After all, because of his previous strength in the Southern Theater and some deliberate behaviors. He has already set up quite a few enemies. Similarly, because he was Asuna's person, those political opponents who dare not and cannot attack Asuna in the open will naturally choose to attack him.

According to William and Hela's plan, then this time he will go to the royal capital of Lane, and it is best for him to find a backer to borrow the momentum to accompany him, and try to avoid exposing his strength early.

It's just that. The greedy appearance of the young nobleman in front of him who clearly wanted to dig into the corner of the wall still made Sean understand that if he didn't reveal his identity, I am afraid that there would be no way to leave like this today. And if it really went to the station of the Seventh Army. Then his identity will also be exposed, and it may even make some smart people speculate on some of his methods, which will be even more detrimental to him.

After all, the Seventh Legion has been the most famous noble legion in Lane since its inception.

The command of this legion has always been in the hands of the Ryan royal family, even if there will be some infighting or management confrontation, it will be a conflict and confrontation within the Ryan royal family. However, as the most important and most loyal legion of the royal family, the nobles who came out of this legion naturally easily gained the trust and recognition of the royal family of Lane, so over time, this legion became a test place for various noble families to show loyalty to the royal family, so nobles began to send those not very important heirs in their families to this legion.

In this way, there are also nobles who continue to provide supplies and the like to the Seventh Legion, and the royal family of Lane is of course very happy to see such a situation, which means that they don't need to spend a penny to have someone to help them raise the army, and they only need to throw a little bit of meat out of the way at the right time to satisfy these nobles, why not? Of course, if it is a truly loyal family, or a really capable talent, the Lane royal family will not be stingy, and they are still very happy to provide them with an opportunity or platform.

As a result, the Seventh Legion is naturally becoming more and more mixed. After all, because of political opinions or interests, the major nobles of the Ryan Kingdom will also be hostile to each other, or allied, or alliance, or neutral, and the reactions and attitudes of these families will naturally affect the children of those families who were sent to the Seventh Legion. It's just that this is not without benefits, because almost all the nobles in the Ryan Kingdom are gathered, so the platform of the Seventh Legion itself is also the largest source of information for each family.

It is conceivable from this that once Sean's disguised identity spreads in the Seventh Legion, the major families will receive the news in three days at most. And maybe those young noble children of the Seventh Legion won't think too deeply, but once this kind of information is transmitted back to the family, with the cautiousness of those noble old foxes, they will naturally be able to quickly sketch a general strategic plan that can be guessed even if it is not completely accurate.

"Broad, are you so anxious to woo my people?" After Sean sighed helplessly, he still chose to speak, "Aren't you afraid that something is too hot, and if you can't swallow it, you will burn your throat?" ”

The pupils of the young nobleman named Brod shrank suddenly, because when Sean said this, he could feel an extremely obvious awe-inspiring killing intent, which was a powerful momentum that was completely above him. He turned his head and stared at Sean, perhaps because of Sean's strong coercion. But in such a short moment, he was already sweating profusely, his face was a little pale, and he gasped and said, "Who are you?" ”

Sean didn't speak anymore, just lifted his hood slightly, and stared at Brod indifferently.

"It's you!" Broad's face flushed.

For Sean, even if he turns to ashes, he will not forget, because it was the conflict that broke out at the gates of Tonis Fortress more than a year ago that completely ended his fourth in line as the heir. For this reason, he was angry and directly disassociated with the Sebarox family, but at that time, the Rhodis family, the family of Broad's biological mother, did not want him to throw an olive branch, so he officially broke away from the nobility and began to work as a soldier. After several encirclement and suppression operations and the great battle in the Northwest Theater, he finally relied on his own strength to climb to the position of earl.

But it's just a fictitious title, and there is no fiefdom, even in the Seventh Legion, which is just serving as the squadron leader of a squadron.

So for Sean, Broad is still very resentful in his heart. Because if it weren't for him, he wouldn't have ended up where he is today. But beyond resentment. Instead, he was jealous. Jealous of Sean's luck: because when the war broke out, he heard that Sean was the commander-in-chief of the Southern Theater of Operations, and that he was still a baron. And when he overheard the name Sean mentioned again after the war, it was the list of marquis that leaked from the royal family.

For this reason, he finally realized that he wanted to become a true nobleman with his own strength. This is by no means an easy task. So when the Rhodes family came to meet him and said that the Rhodes family was willing to accept his identity, Broder agreed without the slightest hesitation, and became Brod. From the moment of Rodis. He officially joined the race for the heir of the Rhodis family.

Today, he is the second in line to the Rodis family, and the gap between him and the first in line has narrowed to a completely negligible gap.

So, if he can have a Dragonrider as a follower, then it will definitely be of great help in his heir competition. This is also the reason why Broad has such a feverish look in his eyes when he sees Rena and Blackstone, because no one knows the meaning of the word "privilege" better than him.

Of course, after seeing Sean again at this time, Broad finally understood that Sean had more than just luck. Although his strength has not improved much, but under the pressure of his momentum, Broad does not even have the heart to resist at all, how many people do you have to kill to have such a terrible murderous aura.

Broad couldn't figure it out.

"It's me." Sean nodded expressionlessly, "We're meeting again." ”

Broad looked at Sean and was silent.

"As I said, I'll only stay at Tonis Fortress for one night and leave the next day, so you'd better stay out of my way." Sean still said softly, but since his identity has been revealed, then naturally he will not be polite, anyway, he slaughtered two of this nobleman's subordinates in the Tony Fortress, "You and I are old acquaintances, because you should know very well what will happen if you stand in my way." A year ago I was able to kill both of your guards, and a year later, what do you think of the situation? …… I don't see a golden powerhouse around you. ”

Listening to Sean's naked mockery, Broad was silent.

The soldiers of the Seventh Legion, who had followed Brod, looked at each other as well, and it was obvious that they had already heard that the two young men not only knew each other, but also seemed to have a vendetta against each other. But Broad, as their commander, would not dare to disperse these people without giving an order.

"Spread out." Broad waved his hand.

All the soldiers quickly dispersed.

Sean glanced at Broad, a little puzzled by his crisp reaction, and frowned slightly. But since Broad didn't say anything more, Sean naturally didn't mean to speak again, he hesitated, still didn't put the hood on, but when he passed by Broad, he heard a whisper from Broad, which made Sean slightly stunned for a moment, and then put the hood on, and then left with Rena, Cecilia, Shephaneo and others.

After Sean and the others walked away, the extremely oppressive atmosphere in the venue finally began to slowly dissipate.

A few soldiers who were close to Broad stepped forward at this time, and then asked, "My lord, who was that person just now?" ”

Broad's expression was complicated, but he still shook his head: "It's nothing, you shouldn't have seen today's events, if I know who has spread the news in private, you yourself will know the consequences." ”

Hearing Broad's serious voice, these soldiers of the Seventh Legion were a little awe-inspiring, because they rarely saw Broad so powerful. However, in the eyes of these soldiers, it was probably only because their commander had suffered at the hands of the other party, and he had killed two guards, which was very embarrassing, so they were forbidden to discuss it in private, which they could understand, after all, nobles love face.

And Sean, who gradually disappeared from the field of vision of Broad and others, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "Interesting." (To be continued......)
