No matter how old they are, everyone has their childlike moments, which will burst out once they encounter an opportunity, which is also a kind of spiritual relaxation.
A person's nerves are always tense under the pressure of life, and one day they will break.
Seeing that Di Lanxue's wedding was approaching, Homer knew that Downton was under great pressure. He had to face Heinrich, the mainland's most promising star, who was recognized as the number one star among the younger generation.
A man, the heir to a wealthy family, a genius with a greater presence than the King of Saint Jutland, almost narrowly escaped death when he died.
Downton is not married, but he no longer lives alone. He has a family with Elaine, Hu Tao, and Sissi, and he already has too many attachments.
If he dies, many people will be heartbroken and this new empire will collapse.
This is also the reason why Homer allowed Downton to act mischievously, but in fact, this boy was indeed the master he valued, and his will was terrifyingly tenacious. After a few pranks, he had already adjusted his mentality and started to return.
"confirmed?"
Homer asked.
"Well, if I don't go, I will regret it for the rest of my life. No, even if I die, I won't be at peace."
Facing the cold winter wind, Downton looked grim.
Homer stopped talking, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. This was probably the last quiet time Downton could enjoy.
Thousands of miles of fertile fields, dyed with the beauty of sunset.
Downton was looking at his empire, his territory, and his people. Suddenly, a luxuriously decorated warship appeared in the sky.
"who?"
Downton frowned. The battleship was sailing in the direction of the royal capital of Frankfurt. When he got closer, he found that the flags of the Twilight and Saint Jutland empires were flying.
"Di Lanxue and Heinrich haven't even gotten married yet, and the national flag has already been hoisted?"
Homer ridiculed that the Twilight flag is on top, which means that the battleship belongs to Twilight, and the battle flag of another country is hung below. The meaning of this is thought-provoking.
"I guess it's for sending invitations, right? Hanging the national flags of the two countries is also an expression of attitude."
Cheap god guess.
"Go up and have a look!"
Without Homer's urging, Downton accelerated and flew into the sky, preparing to swoop closer.
After entering Sheng Aoxun, Downton's Mirror Shisui evolved again. It can not only detect soul fluctuations, but also shield all fluctuations in itself.
Of course, it is completely useless to Downton, who has the talent of great astral teleportation. It is impossible for any detection magic to capture his astral body.
The battleship has been transformed into a luxury airship, specially used for tourism and enjoyment. In order to make more space on the front deck, one of the main guns was removed.
There are more than a dozen parasols open, and underneath are expensive tables and chairs, filled with pastries and coffee carefully prepared by famous chefs using expensive ingredients.
It's tea time.
A gorgeously dressed girl was lying on a bench, enjoying the sunbath. Because of the magic barrier, the strong wind from high altitude could not blow through at all.
Next to it was a group of wealthy and noble children, the worst born of whom was also the son of a duke. They gathered around the girl, vying to flatter her.
"It's just a wedding invitation, so why does Her Highness Anna need to come forward?"
"Yes, how can that Downton be so virtuous? Just find anyone. Being able to attend His Royal Highness Di Lanxue's wedding is already something he has been convinced of for three lifetimes."
"Why did you invite him? Some old dukes from second-rate countries even humbly asked for help in order to get an invitation."
A group of nobles murmured. Between the lines, they expressed disdain for Downton, thinking that Anna's attention was meaningless.
"By the way, I heard that Downton had an affair with His Highness Di Lanxue. I don't know who spread the rumor. If I found out, I would have to skin him and cramp him."
Before a nobleman finished speaking, Anna grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it out.
boom!
The unlucky noble had a nosebleed and burst into tears. However, he did not dare to lose his temper, so he laughed along and apologized to Anna.
"I'm sorry, I made a mistake."
The unlucky noble is very depressed, but there is nothing he can do about it. He can't afford to offend him. Anna doesn't have much ability, but her background is powerful. Not to mention having a sister who is in charge of the Twilight Empire, her brother-in-law is also the best in the world.
"I don't want to hear this name again." Anna curled her lips, "And everything about Delankfurt, even one syllable, makes me feel dirty."
"Your Highness, are you still coming?"
Some people are confused.
"Who wouldn't want to come to such a grand and grand wedding? The kings and high-ranking officials of the nine empires will all come in person. Those who can get the invitation are the respectable people on this continent. That disgusting man knows that he has got the invitation.
, you can’t come here like you’re flying!”
Anna laughed sarcastically, "Of course, provided he doesn't die suddenly from excitement."
"Haha, that guy is from a commoner background and has never seen much of the world. That's understandable!"
Some nobles join in the fun.
"Who is he? He is so shameless that he spreads the scandal with my sister. It is really disgusting. I will never let such a guy tarnish my brother-in-law's wedding."
Ana punched the table and screamed loudly, "Why should he fight with my brother-in-law?"
In fact, Di Lanxue and Sissi's reputation is unparalleled in the whole continent. Except for Downton, they have never had any scandals with any man. Don't dare. A second generation who dotes on his daughter and a Heinrich who loves his fiancée will let him
Why would a man who wants to use this method to increase his popularity regret it for the rest of his life?
"You want him to 'actively' refuse to attend the wedding?"
Someone guessed what Anna was thinking.
"That's just one of them."
Anna has many dirty tricks. She wants to teach Downton a profound lesson and discredit him so that he can offer his treasure to his brother-in-law.
"Anna, you should think twice before you act. Downton is Sissi's boyfriend, so he will definitely go to the wedding."
The speaker was the second son of the wealthy Duke of Hanover. Even the willful Anna would not dare to smash another teacup.
Princess Anna has a bad temper, but that doesn't mean she's a fool.
"Hey, I don't know what that woman Sissi likes about him? She must have been deceived."
Anna scoffed.
"Hey, listening to the conversation, it seems that she is Di Lanxue's sister, but her attitude towards you is quite bad."
Homer was speechless, "If you really marry Lion Girl, you will suffer enough from all the family conflicts!"
"How big a wave can a princess make?"
Downton's face was expressionless, but deep down he was unhappy. It didn't matter that he was belittled and questioned, but not being recognized by his girlfriend's family was the greatest sorrow.
As the king of an empire, controlling the lives of tens of millions of people, his mentality is no longer as timid as before. How can he convince others with reason? No, Downton chose war!
Even a king is not domineering. How can an empire rise strongly?
Ming Jing Zhishui was removed, and the terrifying Long Wei suddenly suppressed him like a mountain.
"There are enemies!"
Hanover's reaction was the fastest, and he almost discovered the abnormality together with the Grand Mage and the Chief of Guards who accompanied the group.
"It's a giant dragon!"
Everyone looked up and saw a giant dragon breaking through the clouds and gliding down like a ferocious and majestic ancient beast.
The rays of rays of light shone in all directions, falling on its colorful scales, making it look like a dream, and it was beyond gorgeous.
"Goddess above, she is actually a colorful dragon!"
The knowledge of the nobles was naturally much better than that of the common people. They recognized the origin of the dragon at the first sight, and immediately gasped in fright. If they were not on the battleship, they would have turned around and ran away.
When encountering an ordinary dragon, everyone is confident that they can slay the dragon, but it takes thousands of years for a colorful dragon to be born, so there is really no hope of winning.
"It's so beautiful. I want to use its dragon skin to make clothes. You guys, please blow it down for me."
Anna suddenly jumped up. Staring at Downton, she was already imagining what kind of clothes she could use fur for. If she wore them like this, she would definitely become the center of attention at every banquet. Even her sister couldn't suppress her beauty.
No one took action, even though there were more than a dozen legends accompanying the army.
"What are you doing?"
Anna questioned.
"Anna, calm down!"
Hanover was a little annoyed. This woman really didn't know what was important. If her father hadn't wanted to marry the Twilight Empire, and he knew he was not qualified to pursue Di Lanxue, he would have settled for the next best thing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have dealt with Anna, a woman like her.
"What are you afraid of? It's just a colorful dragon. With so many of us, we are fully capable of destroying it."
Anna encouraged.
We all come from noble families, and who doesn’t have a few legendary magic outfits that are at the bottom of the box? Add in top-notch magic servants and legendary bodyguards, and you’ll definitely be able to fight.
Of course, at most it would just be a hard fight and some people would die, but in Anna's opinion, the colorful dragon skin was worth more than the life of a legend.
"You want my dragon scales?"
Downton stared at Anna, his tone unkind.
"I am Di Polo, is this woman mentally ill?"
Homer was surprised.
"Of course... I want it!"
When the last two words were spoken, Anna's expression became ferocious, and she suddenly pulled out a dagger and pointed it at Downton.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Purple electricity swirled around the dagger, and then three arrows formed, directly cutting through the space barrier and hitting Downton.
Downton's shield opened in time, but it was still blasted through. As a giant dragon, it couldn't use starlight protection, otherwise its identity would be exposed, so it decided to resist and test its defense power.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The smoke of the elemental explosion flooded Downton.
"what are you doing?"
Hanover was anxious. Even the legendary mage accompanying him glared at him. Without enough benefits, who would be willing to go to war with such a powerful enemy?
"What are you waiting for? Come on together!"
Anna is also a little clever, deliberately provoking a fight, so that those people will not be able to fight without fighting. After all, the dragon will not reason with you.
If you gain the upper hand, then of course no one will complain. Everyone kills the dragon and divides the spoils. If they lose, there will be so many wealthy children, even the giant dragon, they will not dare to kill indiscriminately. At most, they will kill some servants and soldiers to vent their anger.
To be serious, massacre some towns. Anyway, as a princess, my life is definitely not safe.
Sure enough, the quick-thinking princes immediately activated the powerful magic stored in the magic costume and attacked Downton. The slow-thinking princes hesitated, and some of the more insidious ones waited until the first wave passed before taking action.
This can avoid becoming the dragon's first target.
At this moment, human nature is revealed in a subtle way. (To be continued.)
