The Mage Behind the Scenes From the Twin Cities Chapter 166

"Roar!!"

On the plain on the border between Noxus and Demacia, the four dragon birds roared in unison, flapping their wings and daring not to move forward.

Old General Laurent on the back of the dragon bird widened his eyes and exclaimed:

"Flying wing protector?"

In front of them, it was Kyle who had six golden wings on his back and was wearing silver-white armor.

However, Kyle's holy sword is no longer there, and he does not hold a blade in his hand.

But even so, the appearance of Kyle made old General Laurent's heart sink to the bottom.

A month is neither long nor short.

With the might of Noxian mages, it doesn't seem impossible to make them...

"Disperse, send the news back to Xiongdu!!" Laurent shouted.

The four dragon bird knights started the action without hesitation, scattered in the air, and tried to escape at the fastest speed with the dragon bird.

The corner of Kyle's mouth passed a cold play, and the gold in his eyes was slowly occupied by black.

Immediately afterwards, her figure disappeared in place in an instant.

laugh! !

"Ow!!"

A shrill scream resounded through the sky.

The rest of the knights had no time to look back at all, only old General Laurent couldn't bear to look back.

The dragon bird knight heading north was split into two by a golden light, and the golden holy flame burned to volatilize before the blood was spilled.

It didn't take a moment for the human and the dragon to be reduced to ashes.

"Come on!"

Laurent endured the fear and grief, and he sat down with the dragon bird and rushed to the west at the fastest speed.

After Kyle left, the west was empty, and there was the fastest way to the interior of Demacia.

Soon, the three knights disappeared from their sights in the blink of an eye, and Kyle also disappeared at the same time.

Ten minutes after leaving, the old General Laurent still carried his heart, and made a decision in an instant:

"It's very close to the Eternal Peak, which is the training base of the Dragon Knights. We must send the news of the rebellion of the flying wing protector back to Xiongdu!"

"Yes!"

The dragon bird knight controlled the dragon bird to dive down, and was about to rush towards the lofty mountain in the distance.

But at this time, a golden figure suddenly appeared in front of them, which made the expressions of the two of them change greatly.

Before they could move, Kyle had a bow and arrow in his hand.

Bend the bow, shoot the arrow!

Swish!

The seemingly ordinary arrow streaks a golden beam in the air, but in the blink of an eye, it has pierced the neck of the Dragon Bird Knight.

The death of the knight made the dragon bird fall into a frenzy in an instant, rushing towards Kyle with a roar.

No matter how much General Laurent shouted and slapped, it was useless, his face was already full of despair.

This is located at an altitude of 1,000 meters, and when Kyle appears here, the other two knights must have encountered an accident.

but why...

Obviously Noxus is willing to sign a peace treaty, why let the Guardian God of wings intercept them...

Could it be... is his guess wrong...

The real reason is that He wants to make the two sides go to war?

Dragon Bird's body was pierced by Kyle's golden light, and he was seriously injured and dying.

Kyle glanced indifferently at the falling dragon bird and Laurent, and the figure disappeared in the air, turning into thousands of golden light spots.

"Are you going to die?"

Old General Laurent grabbed the reins tightly and could feel the wind whistling past his ears.

When they fell to the ground, it must have been his death.

"It's really in line with His judgment..."

He laughed miserably and closed his eyes regretfully.

It's a pity that the information has not returned to Xiongdu...

"Ow!!"

At this time, the nearly dying dragon bird suddenly let out an unwilling roar, and his consciousness recovered slightly.

It kept flapping its wings, trying to keep its balance.

While this didn't stop them from falling, it greatly slowed their fall.

The dragon bird's already blurred vision saw the lake not far below, it didn't have time to think, and staggered and dived there.

boom! !

The dragon bird fell into the water, like a boulder thrown into the sea, blasting large swaths of water.

Immediately afterwards, a few blisters appeared on the lake, and after making slight waves... an arm burst out of the water.

"call!"

Old General Laurent dragged his aching body, took off all his armor, and slowly swam towards the lake.

He trembled and climbed ashore, moving with difficulty, walking towards the nearest village step by step.

At least now, he can't die!

The capital of Demacia.

In the center of the parliamentary hall, eight high-ranking officials sat around an octagonal table.

Each of them represents an important matter for Demacia, which includes the military, nobles, treasury, and seekers.

Behind the octagonal table, a man over fifty years old sat on the throne. With a crown on his head, he is not angry and powerful.

"Geren Crownguard, report the situation!"

Jarvan III on the throne asked.

In front of the octagonal table, a burly warrior was kneeling on one knee, and it was Galen.

"Yes!"

Galen's expression turned solemn:

"100 kilometers to the east of the Eternal Peak, we found the body of the Dragon Knight Rens, who was the Dragon Knight who followed His Highness to Noxus."

"That's our territory." A noble minister frowned slightly. His name is Britos, and he is in charge of the kingdom's finances.

"There is a high probability that Noxus did it." Grantham, the Chancellor of the Administration, said lightly.

Grand Marshal Tiana Crownguard shook his head. "Noxus didn't need to do that. According to time, they died on the way back. Captain Garen Sword, is there any news from the front?"

On formal occasions, she is Galen's direct boss, in charge of all the deployment of Demacia's troops.

Galen's expression turned solemn, and he solemnly replied:

"General Laurent stopped at the front line with four dragon knights and explained Noxus' intention to sign a peace treaty. Then, old general Laurent led the four dragon knights to leave, wanting to Return to Xiongdu first."

This has already happened a few days ago.

Until now, they have not found any clues except for the body of a knight.

"What injury did the knight die of?" asked Eldred, the commander of the mageseekers, suddenly.

As he has been following the Mage's traces for many years, he prefers to infer the results from clues.

"Died from an arrow wound. It is judged that the place where they fought was at a high altitude. At least Rens fell from an altitude of more than 100 meters, and the hero was almost bloody." Galen couldn't bear it.

"We mourn the death of that knight." Eldred continued to ask, "How many warriors are there in Demacia who can hit the dragon knight with precision with an arrow in the sky?"

Tiana frowned and looked at her husband, facing the obscure look in his eyes, and quickly understood the meaning.

She showed anger on the surface, frowned and said:

"Eldred, this can't be done by us. The warriors who can do this are either in the Dreadnought Vanguard or the Light Shield Bulwark. The rest are also in the Dragon Knight training base on Eternal Peak."

Galen lowered his head and added with a straight face:

"The direction of Eternal Peak confirms that no Dragon Knights take off, and the Light Shield Barrier and the Fearless Pioneer do not have air combat capabilities."

Suddenly, one of Jarvan III's personal guards strode in eagerly through the side door and whispered in the king's ear.

After the personal guard retired, facing the gazes of the nine people below, King Jarvan III of Demacia slowly opened his mouth and said:

"Old General Laurent is not dead. He is not far from Xiong now, and he will be back soon."

"The old general is still alive..."

Hearing this news, Galen's face was slightly relieved. The rest of the people looked different.

"This is not necessarily a good thing." Chancellor of the Exchequer Bristol looked serious, "Remember the information that His Royal Highness Jarvan said?"

"You mean... a woman who can change her appearance in Noxus?" Grantham frowned slightly.

Prince Jarvan once reported a piece of information that the problem with Noxus' information was precisely because their dark lines could not help being grasped by the other party, and the other party could change into their dark lines, allowing them to send back information without suspicion. .

After getting this news, they also secretly investigated the interior of Demacia.

Although the noble family was not involved, the results they got were also terrifying.

There are nearly 100 people in Xiongdu who are disguised as that woman, she can be divided into thousands and can play all roles perfectly.

The people who were finally caught dissipated like a mirror, and they only got a name from the woman...

Black Rose!

No one knows how many black roses there are in Demacia, and even they themselves can't guarantee that there is no avatar of her in this hall now.

"If Noxus did this, the old General Laurent would be very suspicious." Eldred said calmly.

"He belongs to the Laurent family." Eleanor Lightshield, who was in charge of noble affairs, raised his concerns.

They are suspicious, and the current surveillance and investigation has not been carried out among the nobles, and no one here wants to start this.

"It's not easy to investigate directly, but no matter what her purpose is, it will eventually be revealed. I propose that the entire Laurent family be included in the focus of observation from today." Tiana looked around at the people and put forward her own thoughts.

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

The other seven senior officials agreed, and finally everyone turned their attention to King Jarvan III.

In the administrative system of Demacia, if any of the eight high-ranking officials disagreed, Jarvan III had a veto. When the eight high-ranking officials agreed, Jarvan III also had the right to propose reconstruction and improvement.

The king symbolized the will of the people of Demacia, and he was the elected representative of the peoples.

"I agree." Jarvan III nodded slightly.

For whatever reason, he had to agree.

Now Demacia is undercurrent, and the Lightshield family can't stay out of it.

But there is one thing that makes him a little concerned. The old General Laurent supports the Light Shield family, but the Crown Guard and the next generation of Laurent are too close...

He didn't know if this was good or bad, but since the Crown Guard had come up with surveillance, he was willing to push the boat to keep an eye on it.

"Captain Galen Sword, I'll leave this matter to you, do it secretly, don't disturb the normal life of the Laurent family." Tiana looked at the burly figure kneeling on one knee below.

When Garen heard this order, his body froze slightly.

The order he least wanted, finally came.

The job was actually more suitable for his uncle Eldred, but he still remembered the promise he made to his mother and aunt not long ago.

He has to carry the mission of the whole family.

Galen took a deep breath and said firmly:

"Yes!"

"Geren, go down first." Tiana smiled and nodded at him.

Galen didn't want to stay any longer, so he went out the door in a frenzy.

Looking at the door that was gradually closing, his thoughts were a little confused.

Unexpectedly, he still violated his own justice. Spy on your buddies who haven't made a mistake, just because they might be fake...

Oh, how ridiculous!

He laughed at himself and walked out step by step with a weight-bearing pace.

night.

Laxana, who was hiding in the corner of the corridor, quietly listened to the heavy footsteps beside her, and her tender face was complicated.

This is the footsteps of his brother, who just left the family council room.

She knew what her brother was carrying, so she was more eager to do something.

After the sound faded away, she walked out of the corner and walked to the door of the parliamentary room.

Before she could knock on the door, she heard her aunt's voice from inside:

"Laxana, come in."

Laxanna's face stiffened slightly, but she pushed open the thick door with the Crownguard's crest carved in front of her.

The door slowly opened to both sides, and the scene inside caught her eye.

With the exception of her father, the other three crown guards were in power.

Aunt Tiana, uncle Eldred, and her mother... Mrs. Ogatha.

"Mother..."

Laxana's face flashed.

Even at home at night, Mrs. Ogusa still wears an aristocratic dress with complete makeup and extravagance from the inside out.

"Miss Laxana, since you are here, don't put on this face."

Mrs. Oglesha sat on the seat, her blue eyes reflecting the nervousness on Laxana's face.

Laxana's heart moved slightly, knowing that her mother probably already knew her decision.

The tension and anxiety on her face slowly dissipated, and gradually became normal, and confidence and firmness reappeared on her face:

"I heard that Noxus is willing to sign a peace treaty with us. My brother is here too."

"That's right." Tiana nodded without shyness.

"I think this is a good time for Demacia to solve internal problems, and I'm ready there." Laxana had a firm look in her eyes.

It's not like she hasn't done anything recently, and she has taken the opportunity to recruit a lot of people who are implicated in the defeat of the Flying Wing Protector and magic. Now she is about to plan a big event in Xiongdu.

"Things have changed, two things have happened."

Tiana's face was calm, and she said what happened today:

"The four dragon knights who escorted old General Laurent back were all killed in action, all within the kingdom. Your news today comes from the announcement for the public, but the reality is far more complicated than what you heard."

"Four dragon knights died?" Laxana did not exclaim.

If the Dreadnought Vanguard and the Lightshield Bulwark are Demacia's finest infantry, then the Dragon Knights are the kingdom's finest air cavalry.

Each of them has a reality of one hundred.

Before this, there has never been a record of four people being killed at the same time in the territory.

Laxanna forced herself to calm down, and analyzed doubtfully:

"Is it Noxus' hand? But why? They have no motive."

"According to the old General Laurent, he saw a person who took us by surprise... The winged protector."

Tiana looked strange and continued to add:

"This is also the second thing I want to say. The Protector of Flying Wings is back. The four Dragon Knights all died at his hands, and only old General Laurent survived."

"The God of Flying Wings..." Laksana frowned and fell into contemplation.

If Noxus still has the element of the enemy country, there is no reason for the wing protector.

Tiana smiled and continued to tell her:

"In the old General Laurent's statement, the Winged Protector wanted to kill them all. Perhaps it was to spark hatred between the kingdom and the empire, or the Winged Protector had been transformed by Noxus and betrayed."

It has been more than a month since the last battle of the gods. According to the agreement between another justice protoss and Noxus at that time, it is indeed time to release the flying wing protector.

But in a month, who didn't know what happened to the Protector of Wings in Noxus, or whether she was still the protector of Demacia.

And... these are the words of the old General Laurent...

"Wait...why can old General Laurent come back?"

Laxana raised her own question.

Since she went through some dark things, her thoughts are not as simple as before.

If she was in the past, I am afraid that she would only be happy that the old General Laurent survived, and praise the other party's luck.

With the help of the magic book, she was able to understand the history of many kingdoms and empires before the continent.

From history, her thinking has been transformed. Behind every seemingly coincidental thing, there must be some causal relationship.

Hearing this, the three people sitting in the parliament room had a smile on their mouths, and there was a hint of satisfaction in their eyes.

"I heard that it was Kyle who killed the dragon bird. Seeing it fell from a height of 1,000 meters, he thought he would die and left." Tiana explained with a smile~www.mtlnovel.com~ This is the matter biggest doubt.

The winged protector has executed justice for hundreds of years, and no one can escape his judgment except another protoss.

And old General Laurent obviously does not have that kind of strength. People who were stronger and higher in status than him have been tried a lot.

Eldred said lightly from the side:

"The information just came from the Demon Seeker Legion. The body of the dragon bird was found in the lake. It was done by magic. But there is a doubt..."

His face gradually became serious: "When we used the forbidden stone to **** out the judgment magic from the wound, a dark magic suddenly emerged. If we hadn't been suspicious at the beginning, we would not have done this at all."

"Dark magic?? How is that possible!" Laksana was even more shocked when she heard it.

The power of the winged protector comes from magic, but definitely not dark magic.

Either the old General Laurent was panicking, or there was really something wrong with the Protector of Flying Wings.

Either way, things are getting trickier.

After half an hour, Laxana walked out of the parliamentary room with a heavy expression.

According to her aunt and mother's wishes, she doesn't need to make extra efforts now, just develop normally.

The Crown Guard family needs to determine the status of the flying wing protector, and then proceed to the next step after confirmation.

Back in the room, she couldn't help but sit in front of the desk and recounted everything that happened in the parliamentary room.

In the end, she was silent for a while or wrote:

'I don't understand, a lot of things are not normal. '

She couldn't see what had gone wrong recently, but the intuition she had developed in the magic book told her that many places should not be like this.

Including the attitude of the Crown Guard's family, including asking his brother to monitor, including the fact that it was the aunt who took the lead in proposing to target the Laurent family in the parliament hall...
