Shut up, I don't want to have children with you anymore.

"So we must solve the problem of energy not being able to participate in the magic circle..."

Leon came to her side, slowly squatted down, and observed the energy crystals with her.

After thinking for a while, Leon said, "You just said that you want to reverse Ravi's space magic...right?"

"Yes, because you were teleported here by Dad's space magic."

Leon: "But Ravi's space magic was out of control at that time, wasn't it? And the reason for the loss of control was Ravi's heart-protecting dragon scales—"

"Heart-protecting dragon scales!"

Orrola suddenly raised her head, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"The reason why the energy storage crystal didn't work is because its energy properties are different from Ravi's space magic."

"The space magic that teleported you here at that time contained the power of the dragon scales that protect your heart."

"So we must use something like Ravi's Heart Protecting Dragon Scale to successfully perform the current reversal magic."

Leon smiled with satisfaction, and was impressed by his daughter's quick understanding. He had to ask the next key question:

"Then where can we find similar heart-protecting dragon scales..."

Orrola was startled and scratched her head. "Normally, a dragon needs to be at least a hundred years old to slowly condense the heart-protecting dragon scales, but the three of us sisters are less than a hundred years old in total..."

"And if what you just said is true, Xiao Guang, even if we have the Heart-Protecting Dragon Scale, its energy properties must be different from Ravi's."

Noa said, "We are originally silver dragons, and Ravi is a star-wandering dragon. Our powers come from different sources."

"Well, big sister is right."

Orrola sighed and inserted the ten fingers of both hands into the messy pink fur. "Ah~~ Then where can we get the heart-protecting dragon scales similar to those of the Star Wandering Dragon Clan! And it must be at the Dragon King level like Ravi!"

"I did receive a reliable piece of intelligence some time ago."

Noa said slowly, "We might be able to find the heart-protecting dragon scales we need there."

Leon looked at her, "Where?"

"empire."

Chapter 269: 77 A good warrior will not be defeated twice by the same move

"Why does the Empire have the dragon scales that protect the heart of the dragon race?"

After a pause, Leon added, "And I still don't know what this heart-protecting dragon scale is. It's not a detonator, and it doesn't seem to be an organ that stores the final energy."

"The heart-protecting dragon scale is very important to the dragon race."

Noa explained, "Its function is not what it seems on the surface. It can store energy and then detonate it when both parties die. The heart-protecting dragon scale is actually more like a 'safety device'."

"Safety device?"

"Ah."

Noa said, "A dragon with a heart-protecting dragon scale will be able to control its own power more perfectly, because pure-blooded dragons have a desire for violence in their blood, and they will fight without regard for the consequences. The heart-protecting dragon scale prevents the dragon from being attacked by its own power at a critical moment. Of course, it has many other functions."

"For example, it can be used to enhance the vitality of the dragon race, or used as a detonator at a critical moment, just like what happened to the Shining Star Dragon King Star."

Leon pondered what Noa said, "The safety device... was backfired by the power..."

He seemed to have thought of something, and turned his head to look at Rossweisse in the crystal. "The reason why your mother fell into a coma after trying her best, could it be related to the heart-protecting dragon scale?"

Noah nodded. "Great-grandmother said that Mom's heart-protecting dragon scales were very strange. They existed, but their effect was very small. So when she released that miraculous power in the end, the dragon scales did not work, which caused Mom to fall into a coma."

"Of course, dragon scales may not be the only reason. After all, there may be many reasons that can cause a dragon king-level body like my mother to fall into a deep sleep, and dragon scales are just one of them."

Leon said "oh" thoughtfully, and did not continue to discuss the issue of the heart-protecting dragon scales.

So the topic returned to the beginning:

"Why does the Empire have dragon treasures?"

Noa shrugged. "I'm not sure about that. The person who provided me with the information only said that there are many heart-protecting dragon scales in the empire."

Leon raised his eyebrows, "Who is this person who provides you with information?......"

Noa snorted and laughed, "I won't tell you."

"Tsk, you're still keeping your dad in suspense." Leon curled his lips.

Cool sister made a face with her tongue out, still not saying anything more about this informant.

Leon didn’t care much about the identity of the informant. He cared more about, “Is this person reliable?”

"Very reliable, very reliable. There is absolutely no one in the world more reliable than her."

Okay, I take back what I said. General Lai’s curiosity was completely aroused.

Who on earth could make Noah, who is suspicious and cautious by nature, say that he is "very reliable"?

But Noah seems to be planning to keep this a secret.

Leon would not have been too entangled.

"Besides the Empire, do we have any other way to get dragon scales with similar power to the Star Dragon Clan?" Leon asked.

"It's only been twenty years since Ravi's death, and the Star Wandering Dragon Clan should not have elected the next qualified Dragon King yet." Noa said.

The handover of the Dragon King of each tribe is a rather long and secret process.

Deciding on the candidates, devoting resources, slowly training, conducting evaluation surveys among the people in the tribe, testing the abilities of the elders in the tribe, and finally conducting the Dragon King test is a very time-consuming process.

It could be as short as a few years, or as long as...it's hard to say.

And this is based on the premise that the previous Dragon King had normal birth, aging, sickness and death.

If it was a sudden death like Ravi's, the situation would be much more complicated.

Are there any candidates for Dragon King in the clan? Is there a clear winner in the party struggle?

Or other internal factors will affect the enthronement of the next Dragon King.

"If it weren't for the Dragon King-level heart-protecting dragon scales, it might still be impossible to successfully activate the reversal array."

Orrola said, "We don't have so many opportunities for trial and error. There are only three months left. The next time... we must succeed."

The four fathers and daughters looked at each other, and finally, they all looked at Rossweisse in the crystal.

The silver-haired beauty lay there, peaceful and beautiful.

But Leon wanted to see the black-bellied and venomous Silver Dragon Queen more. Making her trapped in a dream from which she would never wake up for the rest of her life would undoubtedly be the cruelest punishment for her.

After a long time, Leon slowly spoke.

"We... go to the Empire."

......

Leon never expected that he would return to the empire for such a reason.

After clearing out the traitor and leaving here, he thought that when he returned to the empire again, he would definitely take the throne of that dog emperor.

But as time goes by, different troubles and problems have come one after another, leading to the situation we have today.

Leon had to return to his hometown that he loved and hated in order to save his wife and his family.

In the woods a few kilometers away from the empire, Leon is already very familiar with this place.

He pointed to a high ground and looked back at Orrola, "This is where Xiaoguang was born."

"Dad, you're only 23 and you already have Alzheimer's disease?"

Orrola complained mercilessly, "I was born in the territory of the Silver Dragon, right? My mother told me so."

"I mean, I gave you your name here."

At this point, General Lai's smile was harder than AK's. "Hey, back then, your mother was holding me here, begging me not to leave, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, tears streaming down her face. Tsk tsk - hey, where are you going! Wait for me!"

The three sisters walked towards the exit of the woods, with no intention of listening to their old father's reminiscing about the past.

The father and his two daughters came to the outskirts of the imperial city wall and hid behind a slope to observe the situation.

At the gate of the empire, caravans and carriages as well as various teams carrying out missions were coming and going.

Civilians seldom entered or left the city because they had to go through complicated procedures, and by the time they were done, the opportunity was already gone.

Looking at the current situation, this has not changed in the past 20 years.

"Is there a way to get in?"

Noa asked, "My informant said that a perception barrier has been set up above the imperial city wall. The invisibility magic is no longer effective. We can only enter through the main gate."

"Dad was a wanted criminal 20 years ago. I don't know if the warrant has been withdrawn yet."

"Whether we retreat or not, we can't just walk in with open arms," ​​Leon said.

Moon listened carefully to his father's analysis of the situation, trying to learn more practical infiltration techniques from it.

However, the old man's next sentence made Xiaoyue sweat profusely.

He said seriously, "A handsome guy leading three beauties through the streets is really eye-catching."

Moon & Noah II Ling Pai Wu Lin 氿氵 glazed skirt & Xiaoguang: "......"

That’s about it.

Why is it that the closer he gets to his hometown, the thicker-skinned this old bastard becomes?

Orrola sighed and asked, "What do you think, handsome dad?"

Leon set his eyes on the carriages of the caravans coming and going.

A good fighter will not be defeated by the same move twice;

But the Empire's security certainly will.

"Now, Dad wants to see if you guys are exercising regularly."

Leon said, "Especially things like planks."

Chapter 270: 78 I am a security guard

There are many more caravan carriages entering and leaving the empire than before, which greatly reduces the difficulty for Leon and his companions to infiltrate.

If there were only a few scattered groups of businessmen, the security guards would probably search them carefully one by one.

But now there are carriages one after another. If we really search them one by one, we won’t be able to fit in many caravans in a day.

This would greatly affect the speed at which officials collect taxes. How could this be possible?

It's enough to turn a blind eye.

But the new security guard who has not experienced the harshness of society does not seem to think so.

"Captain, is it really okay for us to not work seriously like this? Isn't this just a perfunctory job?" asked a newcomer who had just taken office in the Imperial Patrol.

The man called the captain leaned leisurely on a wooden chair, holding a pipe in his hand, puffing out smoke, "Boy, how much is your monthly military salary?"

"Twenty gold coins." The newcomer answered honestly.

"That's right. There are twenty ways to do things with twenty gold coins. You take twenty gold coins of military pay and worry about two hundred gold coins. This is called insubordination."

The captain spoke slowly, with the tone of someone who had experienced it.

But the newcomer was still confused, "What if something really goes wrong?"

"Is there really an incident? Boy, the Empire has been peaceful and prosperous for the past twenty years. Since the disappearance of that guy named Leon Casmode, no one dares to cause trouble in the Empire."

"Leon...Casmode?"

"Haven't you heard of it? Well, that's true. After all, these are all old stories. I'll tell you slowly when I change shifts."

"Oh..."

The captain continued to smoke welding cigarettes leisurely.

Twenty gold coins of military pay is not a small amount.

But there were not so many that they had to search the bottom of every carriage one by one.

"Damn it, I only earned 100 gold coins a month when I was the leader of the Dragon Slayer Army, but security guards are now making 20 gold coins a month without having to risk their lives. If I had known earlier, I would have been a security guard too, and saved myself 20 years of detours."

"But Dad, if you work as a security guard, you won't meet Mom, right?"

"Oh, that's wrong, baby. I didn't say you have to work as a security guard in the Empire. Wouldn't you be able to meet your mother if you work as a security guard in the Silver Dragon Temple?"

"Emmm...it sounds a bit sci-fi that the Silver Dragon Queen is marrying a security guard in the tribe."
