Chapter 283: A Very Smart Dragon!
"Unicorn little sister? Where are you?" After a moment with no response, Zhui Yue stepped forward in confusion and began searching.
And the direction he searched was precisely the entrance to the back garden.
Standing here was naturally Gervas!
"Ahem, it's me, Zhui Yue!"
Gervas stepped forward, appearing before Zhui Yue's eyes, which were shining with light.
"Uh... why is it you, Gervas two-legged beast? Where is my unicorn little sister? Did you scare her away... wait, something feels a bit off!"
Zhui Yue stopped talking to himself and then fell into a look of deep thought.
Of course it was off!
Because Gervas was currently speaking to him using the unicorn language.
And that call just now was Gervas, not some unicorn little sister!
Zhui Yue finally reacted.
"That... that Gervas two-legged beast, the moon is truly round tonight. Did you just speak using our unicorn language?" Zhui Yue asked tentatively.
"That's right! However, I just seemed to hear you saying something about a unicorn little sister?"
"Ahem, no! Gervas, you must have heard wrong! Also, why can you speak our unicorn language? Could it be that you are actually a unicorn?"
"No, I am not a unicorn. I just ate a strange fruit given to me by the Sea Clan, which allows me to communicate with all races. By the way, I really did hear 'unicorn little sister' just now!" Gervas looked at Zhui Yue with burning eyes.
"Is that so? There is actually such a good fruit? Then I truly congratulate you! By the way, Gervas two-legged beast, I still have some matters to attend to, so I will leave first. Also, I really never called out 'unicorn sister'; that definitely wasn't me..."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Zhui Yue flapped his wings, soared into the air, and vanished into the night sky.
"Hey, is running away enough? Zhui Yue, I will keep this secret for the rest of my life!"
Obviously, Zhui Yue was still too young; this secret was not something that could be settled just by him leaving...
【Ding! Daily intelligence has refreshed!】
【Intelligence One: Because of the envoy banquet half a month ago, the Magic Fan has become famous. The team dispatched by Marquis Marshal Mi Xiusi will arrive at Storm Domain this morning!
However, behind Marquis Marshal Mi Xiusi's team, there is also a team dispatched by the Second Prince.
And the purpose of the Second Prince's team is different; he has come to woo you, and he is also coveting your Magic Fan and monocular telescope.
In the eyes of the envoy sent by the Second Prince, this wooing and acquisition of your Magic Fan and monocular telescope are certain to succeed.】
【Intelligence Two: Dark creatures at the border are increasing day by day with the passage of time. At noon today, another batch of over a hundred dark creatures will wander to the edge of the Iron Mine in Storm Domain.
It is worth mentioning that although the number of dark creatures this time is small, there are five third-order dark creatures and dozens of second-order dark creatures among them.
The reason for this phenomenon is that a powerful fifth-order dark creature has been born in the Land of Death.
This fifth-order dark creature defeated the other dark creatures that originally dominated the Land of Death.
And the current hundred-plus dark creatures are subordinates of one of the fourth-order dark creatures,
because their leader was killed, they fled out of the Land of Death during the day out of fear.】
【Intelligence Three: The Tulip Merchant Guild caravan will arrive in the afternoon. While coming to trade, they brought bad news: your attempt to purchase warhorses has failed because the situation in the north has become tense recently, and the sale of all horses has slowed down.
If you truly wish to buy, you must wait until spring next year.】
【Intelligence Four: The internal strife within the Hou Jue family of Darwin has ended. The dispute between the second son and the third son ultimately ended with the third son winning by introducing outside help.
To consolidate the status he had so hard won, immediately after successfully inheriting the title of Hou Jue, he launched a great purge against the family.
Up to two hundred family cavalrymen who originally supported the second son were imprisoned.
Originally, this new Hou Jue of Darwin wanted to directly execute these cavalrymen and their families, but considering the tight family finances after this internal strife,
on the advice of his confidants, he decided to demote the two hundred cavalrymen to slaves and then auction them publicly!
The Hou Jue family of Darwin has already issued auction invitations to surrounding nobles, and the auction will be held in three days.
And the nobles are very interested in this, even hoping that Hou Jue of Darwin will sell the warhorses together.
To this, the Hou Jue family of Darwin stated that as long as the gold coins are in place, everything is negotiable.
Because the Darwin family is one of the great families in the north that breeds warhorses.】
【Intelligence Five: Adams, who has already mastered the family fleet, is growing faster and faster. In order to increase his own merits,
and to have greater capital for inheriting the title of the Marquis Marquis Aosiding family in the future, he has begun to command the fleet to clear out the pirates around the Marquis Marquis Aosiding family coastline.】
【Intelligence: Harvests have begun successively in various territories of the kingdom, but the beast tribes in the north are also getting restless.
Because winter is approaching, in order to survive the winter safely, they raid the kingdom's border every year.
In the past half month, the kingdom's border has reported more than thirty orc raiding incidents.
Although the current situation is controllable, whether future security is safe is still under evaluation.
The kingdom's current approach can only be to order all border legions and all border territories to strengthen their vigilance.】
【Ding! Daily intelligence refresh complete...】
"Gervas! Gervas! Get up quickly!"
"Gervas! Gervas! Don't sleep in!"
A big stick wakes the sleeping soul, ruthlessly prying open your eyes.
Amidst calls like ghostly wailing and wolf howling, Gervas was forcibly booted up again.
The most painful thing was that while being forcibly booted up, the message given by the system was actually quite tricky.
"Gervas, you are finally awake!"
Opening his eyes, a big head was squatting at the head of the bed, staring straight at him.
Who else could it be but Tu Haojin.
Gervas discovered that after obtaining the languages of the ten thousand races, it was not all benefits.
Because, in the past, when Tu Haojin came to wake him up, at least all he heard was chirping.
Although it was a bit noisy, he could treat it as birdsong and the fragrance of flowers.
But ever since he understood their language, he could no longer treat it as birdsong and the fragrance of flowers...
"Tu Haojin, you really are enough! I just woke up a little late!"
"A little late? Gervas, the sun is already burning your butt; in the past, the sun only burned the ground!" Tu Haojin pointed at the ground beneath the bed and spoke.
"This... this is unavoidable. Who told me to cultivate so diligently last night? I was thinking that if an evil dragon ever came to snatch you in the future, I would have the strength to protect you!"
Gervas started playing the emotional card.
But Tu Haojin was full of disdain and exposed him: "Gervas, you are lying! Although I now look like a Swift Eagle, I am a dragon; you cannot deceive a dragon that is small but very smart!"
"You cultivated so hard last night not to protect me, but for other reasons! Moreover, exactly what those reasons are, I know too!"
"Uh... you know that too?!" Gervas was stunned.
"Of course! Besides me, Zuiyue and the Demon Swift Eagle, we all know! Only you humans have weak hearing and cannot hear it!"
"The situation at the time was this... we heard Head Chef Rose ask you: My lord, didn't a little while of cultivation used to be enough? Why cultivate for so long tonight?"
"Then you answered: You changed into this short skirt, and I feel I can cultivate a little longer today..."
Cough, cough, cough!
"Alright, alright, Tu Haojin, I know I was wrong. Don't say any more. Go to the restaurant and wait for me; I will be there immediately!"
"Hmph, that's more like it. Then hurry up; my stomach is almost starving flat!" Tu Haojin lifted his proud head and flew out the window!
