"Have you met Dvořák? What kind of person is he? Is it true that he is not human as others said?"
Sissi was very curious about some confidential information, even if her father loved her, he would not let her read it.
"I am Di Polo, this topic is so high-end, what should I do if I don't understand it at all?"
"Di Lanxue, Heinrich, Dvořák, any one of these decisions and actions may affect the direction of the situation on the mainland. We will never have the chance to meet geniuses in this life."
"Nonsense, who are you? Who are Mr. Wood and Sissi? They usually have afternoon tea together."
The adventurers were talking in low voices, their eyes full of envy. As for jealousy, there was no trace of it, because they would not be able to reach their heights even in a few lifetimes.
"How should I put it? He is a very unique guy and it is difficult to guess." Wood frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head and laughed, "Okay, don't talk about this, Downton, we meet again."
Wood is a very kind person. It must be said that even if Downton is the Duke of the West, he is just a bastard compared to others. To be remembered by his name and treated so kindly would make everyone shed tears of gratitude.
"Hello!"
If he didn't already have a foundation and didn't want to be a subordinate, Downton did have the idea of taking advantage of Wood. It would be good to follow this kind of master.
"Thank you for taking care of Sissi. He must have caused you a lot of trouble, right?"
Wood held out his hand.
"Who said I was causing trouble for Downton?"
Sissi rolled her eyes at Downton, looking dissatisfied.
"No, the princess is very easy to get along with."
"Haha, I don't know who he is yet?" Wood shook Downton's hand firmly and extended an invitation, "Do you want to join my team?"
"What? Mr. Wood actually personally invited a young man to join his army?"
"What is the origin of this guy? How could Mr. Wood treat him like this?"
"By the way, he seems to have a very good relationship with Princess Sissi. What a bad luck!"
With Wood's words, Downton suddenly became the center of everyone's attention.
Downton had no stage fright at this moment and calmly refused.
"Sorry, I like the feeling of freedom."
Downton let go of Wood's hand.
"Listen to me first. I will give you the position of leader, just like the Demon Bow Group. It is my branch. Don't worry, I will not annex your subordinates."
Wood was slightly surprised, but he still explained patiently.
"Feel sorry!"
Downton shook his head.
"I'm Di Polo, is this guy out of his mind? How many people asked for the opportunity, but he actually refused it casually, without even a hint of hesitation."
"I can confirm that this guy is a fool."
"In these days, there are many people with high aspirations. Only after a few years of social life will you realize that they are all unlucky people with thin lives. He will definitely regret it in the future."
"It's just that if you don't seize this opportunity, Lady Luck will go crazy."
The adventurers despised Downton and had nothing good to say. They were eager to join Wood's army but could not find a way, but this boy refused. It would be strange for them not to be angry at this comparison. But what followed was happiness and pleasure, which is called
Why would Downton live in abjection for the rest of his life?
"Wood, Downton is my friend."
Seeing Downton rejecting the invitation so simply in public, Sissy was worried that the disgraced Wood would cause trouble for him, so she begged for mercy.
"Haha, am I such a petty person? But he can help you talk. It seems that a lot of things happened between you two?"
Wood laughed, and he was so generous.
While everyone was praising Waiwood for his magnanimity, Downton felt the malice coming towards him.
Who is Sissi? Rose of Bavaria, the dream girl of men all over the continent. Princes from third-rate countries are generally not qualified to be her suitors. If the news of his close relationship with her spreads, Downton believes that there will definitely be countless people who will covet her.
Sissi's nobles hired 'hitmen' to get rid of their potential love rival.
"Don't think so bad of me, okay? He might just be teasing Sissi."
Homer sensed Downton's worry.
"hope so."
Downton was silent.
"Whether Wood meant it or not, his words have caused trouble for Downton. Those suitors who hope to change their destiny by marrying will definitely clean up Downton, and they will never allow any accidents to occur."
The Cheap God thinks that Downton is right to be cautious. What nobles are best at is stabbing people in the back. Not only do you not know that, you also foolishly think that they treat you well.
The Green Goblin looked at the hot nightmare under Wood's crotch without even looking at him. He was so arrogant that he snorted, and when the guy turned around, he bit him directly on the butt.
hiss!
Nightmare hissed, raised his hind legs and kicked violently.
The Green Goblin dodged nimbly, stuck out his tongue, and shouted happily, "You can't hit me, you can't hit me!"
Everyone in the audience was dumbfounded. They had never seen a talking mount before, but this was their first time seeing such a cheap one.
"Shut up!" Downton felt so embarrassed that he slapped the Green Goblin on the forehead, "Mr. Wood, I'm sorry."
"It's okay. As a pure-blooded nightmare, if you don't have a temper, you won't be useful in the future." Wood comforted the mount while smiling and wagging his finger, "But next time, don't bite the horse's butt, but go to the battlefield to decide the outcome.
Well, that’s what a peerless horse would do.”
"I, Di Polo, have such a dazzling personality that I can't look directly at him!"
Hutao covered her eyes. She didn't know why, but she always felt that Wood's performance was fake, as if he was wearing a mask.
"Come to the front of the team with me. There will be a battle later. Haven't you wanted to see it for a long time?"
Wood invites Sissi.
"Walk!"
Sissi called to Downton, but after walking a few steps, she realized that he hadn't followed her.
"I won't go."
Having just rejected someone, Downton would not be so embarrassed if he tried to approach her again.
"Why? Well, I won't go either."
Seeing that Downton didn't want to explain, Sissi hesitated for a moment and decided to take care of her face.
"Um?"
Wood, who has always been gentle and elegant, showed an expression of astonishment for the first time. He just said that the two are related, but he didn't believe it. Who is Sissi? How could she like an ordinary boy, but now Sissi is actually worried about a boy's mood?
This has never happened before!
"Oh, I'm forming a team with Downton. Of course I want to be with him, so don't think too much."
Sissi also felt that what she was doing was not right, so she quickly explained. However, facing the probing and guessing eyes around her, her cheeks turned slightly red.
"Hurry up and take command from the front, and secure the treasury as soon as possible."
Sissi urged.
"Okay, be careful, I will arrange a team to protect you."
When Wood left, his eyes swept across another team arriving. Then he was stunned.
"Downton, are you okay? Woohoo, great!"
Juliet saw Downton and ran over immediately.
"Stop crying, Twilight, thank you."
Downton stroked Juliet's hair and greeted Twilight as she walked over without asking. He also knew that it was Twilight who helped Juliet, otherwise she would have died long ago at the war level.
"That's so new." Twilight smiled and looked at Downton, "It seems that you have gained something new during your time away?"
Before Downton could speak, Wood interrupted, "Your name is Twilight. Are you from the Twilight Empire?"
"no!"
Twilight shook her head.
"It's very similar. Your eyes are very similar to one of my friends." Wood bowed gracefully, "I'm presumptuous, please forgive me."
"Like who?"
Sissi asked.
Wood said nothing and turned to leave. But after taking a few steps, he couldn't help but look back. Not only did Twilight and the Lioness he admired have similar eyes, they also had similar temperaments.
Bendtner and the others looked at Downton, very glad that they didn't have a conflict with him just now. No wonder they didn't like Fletcher, and even Wood took the initiative to win over him. Could it be that he was a simple person?
The bell rang, and many adventure groups rushed over, ready to wait for the opportunity. However, they found a big force and happened to join in.
About half an hour later, all members of Downton's team arrived. Even the weakest guide, Old Bu, was not dead, but he was injured and frightened, and his face was always pale.
"Princess, it's great that you're okay!"
Perrin also came. When he saw Sissi, he immediately rushed over to her and asked for help, almost crying.
"Okay, okay, I know your loyalty. I'm not a child. I can take care of myself. Don't be so nervous!"
Sissi was very depressed, and Palin was too nervous about herself.
"It's all my fault, I will never leave you again."
Palin knelt down on one knee and bowed her head in a show of loyalty.
"Um."
Sissi helped Perrin up.
"Your Highness, look!"
Perrin activated his soul shield, and a one-foot-long dragon swam around him, lifelike.
"Ah? You have been promoted to the dragon-slaying level? Congratulations!"
Sissi was stunned for a moment and then congratulated Perrin from the bottom of her heart. However, after witnessing Downton's life-and-death promotions, the achievements of the Guards Commander could no longer shock her.
"Yes, I have succeeded in slaying a dragon, and my lifespan has been extended by ten years." Perlin was so excited that he trembled. He glanced at Downton proudly and deliberately showed off loudly, "Haha, at twenty-three years old, at the level of dragon slaying, I might
I can keep up with Mr. Wood. By the way, after returning to Bavaria this time, I am going to take a long vacation to catch a giant dragon as a demon servant."
"Hey, it's just a dragon-slaying level. What's there to be so arrogant about?"
Hutao muttered.
"Humph, that's because you don't understand the horror of the dragon-slaying level." Perlin was too lazy to argue with Hu Tao. Anyway, this time, he defeated Downton.
"Congratulations!"
Downton sent congratulations.
"Well, thank you!" Palin accepted it as a matter of course, and then put on a strong posture to teach Downton, "Although you are now at the seventh level of Judgment, you have nothing to be proud of. If you don't have inspiration, maybe
You will be stuck in slaying the dragon half a step all your life, so don’t show off, but keep going.” (To be continued..)
