Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 132
After listening to the lord's report of Messi's plan of "slaying the dragon and seizing the treasure", the senior officials of Shuangfengling quickly expressed their views.

To Xia Houyan's surprise, everyone's opinions were relatively unified this time:

There's something wrong with this matter!
Of course, this is not because the Shuangfengling scum have been dazzled by the huge wealth in the elves' treasure house, nor is it because they have the adventurous spirit to go all out to change bicycles into motorcycles, but it is really a forced and helpless choice.

Among them, Mayor Joel’s speech best represents everyone’s general opinion:

"My lord, with the great strength of this Mr. Macy, if he really wants to plot against us, he doesn't need to play any tricks, just shoot directly and blow us into a bloody mist like those bastards in Rock Creek City! Since it still maintains a friendly attitude, given the huge gap in strength, our Frost Maple Ridge has neither the reason nor the right to refuse Mr. Messi's proposal!"

Most of the higher-ups in the territory basically have the same meaning: we really cannot give complete trust to undead creatures like wraiths, but due to the strong unequal strength of the two sides, Shuangfengling can only be like a chicken without a hand. Like a weak woman with no strength, if she can't resist, she can enjoy it, lie down and let it go;
At the same time, assuming that Messi's proposal is really out of good intentions, Shuangfengling can make a fortune overnight and become an upstart in the wilderness in this gamble-no one with normal thinking, Have the courage to categorically reject the huge wealth contained in an entire elf treasury!
According to folklore, the wealth in an elf treasure house is enough to arm an elf army of thousands of people-although the rumors are not always credible, the value of the elf empire's treasure house is also evident from this.

Although the risk is huge, although there is no right to choose, but only for the huge potential benefits, Shuangfengling also has sufficient reasons to gamble - not to mention that according to Messi, at least on the bright side, Shuangfengling Ordinary citizens don't even need to be involved in the strong duel between it and the dragon, and they can make money without losing money!
And Master Victor Laurie, who is a professional in magic, even seemed a little more confident than others.

"I think we're all a little too nervous..." The master smacked his lips and smacked his hands, "My lord, my point of view is that no matter how powerful a vengeful spirit is, a vengeful spirit is still a vengeful spirit. Limitation of your ability to deter zombies, I don't really doubt the truth of its statement that it can't hit you; and even if it has other plans, your necromancy is completely It can be used as a last resort insurance."

Xia Houyan nodded thoughtfully: in the battle not long ago, he did gain some control over Messi's actions after the "drive the wraith" spell took effect, but he just issued a "kill them" The vague order is because the mage gradually loses consciousness after advancing, and can only let Messi play freely.

Of course, as Messi frankly mentioned, at that time, it could actually rely on its speed to kill the lord before the singing of "Drive the Wraith" was completed-Xia Houyan believed that a strong man whose strength reached Messi's level, There must be a variety of methods hidden to counter the magical effects that are not good for you.

But this outstanding "Essentials of Necromancy" can indeed constitute a weak restraint on Messi.

"So..." Xia Houyan pondered after listening to everyone's opinions, "Our conclusion is that we can vote with Messi?"

"This is the best choice at the moment." Master Laurie nodded solemnly, "and the dragon's sense of territory is generally very strong. When it wakes up completely, it is very likely that there will be a battle with Shuangfeng Ridge, so we It's better to strike first!"

"It's just a dragon, let's fuck it!" The members of the military team shouted, "It's all about making a name for yourself!"

——Because they just got a batch of high-quality equipment, the self-confidence of these soldiers has recently shown a rising trend of sesame blossoms.

As for the leaders of the military group, Alice Comstock and Juan Clemente, although they remained silent during the discussion, Xia Houyan keenly sensed the excitement in the hearts of these two high-ranking warriors Feelings.

Different from ordinary soldiers, "dragon" is always a concept with a lot of meaning in the eyes of imperial knights and high-level warriors;

In the thousand-year history of the empire, heroes emerged in large numbers, but there are no more than three types of legendary warriors who are most praised: either those who used dragons as mounts, or those who slept with dragons, or those who killed dragons with their own hands.

The reason why the famous "Thunder Dragon" Samuel is known as the unique legendary sword master in the history of the empire is precisely because he is the second among the three: he killed a sixth-level sword master in a competition. Humanoid thunder dragon, and then married the widow of the other party's dragon girl!
——This kind of awesome act of killing a dragon and seizing his wife in one go, which is a bit more aggressive than a real dragon, made the deeply shocked imperial public opinion circles can't help but mutter "If you are a dragon, that's fine", while He gave Samuel the luxury title of "Brontosaurus".

Now, given the opportunity to personally participate in the dragon hunting operation, how can the two fighters in Shuangfengling not be tempted?

You know, as a participant in the dragon hunting operation, even if a small stone falls on the dragon during the dragon hunting process, you can rely on the assists you get to call yourself a "dragon slayer" in front of other colleagues. Add the dragon pattern that symbolizes the great cause of dragon slaying to your family crest!
Honor is the life of a warrior!

Xia Houyan looked at Alice's resolute eyes, and finally nodded, making up his mind.

"I'm glad you accepted my proposal." Messi floated over wobbly.

Obviously, the discussion just now did not escape its ears;

Of course, in the face of this wilderness spirit that gathers thousands of grievances and controls the movements of every plant and tree in the Soul Breaking Land, everyone in Shuangfengling did not waste energy to lower the volume of discussion at all—they are all seasoned veterans. The rivers and lakes are over, who doesn't know who!

"Mr. Macy, even though we have approved your proposal," Xia Houyan said solemnly to the resentful spirit, "but one of my bottom lines is that we must never involve the people of Shuangfengling who have no fighting ability and put them in danger." territory!"

"You are the boss, you have the final say!" Messi replied without hesitation, "Even, if you don't want to claim the title of 'slaying the dragon', let me single out the big lizard by myself, and you just search for the treasure It's all right—I said, this is the nomination certificate I submitted to you, and everything is for the benefit of you and your people."

"Hmm..." Xia Houyan pondered for a moment, then turned to the members of the military team, "Which one of you wants to participate in the dragon hunting operation?"

A large group of impatient palms were all raised high with a "hula la".
