"This is within the scope of its capabilities, but Black Collar has a violent temper. It still doesn't like people except me to approach it, let alone ride it. Your Highness has a distinguished status, and this matter is a bit too dangerous." Sean continued.
Shake his head.
Taking Sophia Liya to the sky is like carrying a time bomb. If there is a slight mistake, all the efforts of the Eternal Night Army in the Byron Alliance will be in vain. Look at her female guard captain who is about to eat people.
You can tell by his gaze.
"Too dangerous?" Sophia Liya laughed loudly, "The Baron goes up and down every day without any problems, so why is it dangerous when you come to my place? Where is the danger? You may break your neck while riding a horse, am I the only one who can do it?
I won’t ride a horse anymore? If I go to the battlefield, I might die, so why don’t I stop going to the battlefield? The more you say that, the more interested I will be in riding your giant eagle mount.”
"I will arrange it when I have time." Sean's words were obviously a bit perfunctory.
Black Collar is really not a good-natured person. Although he is not as bad as Dark Horse on Fire, he is always a bit untamed and wild in his heart. Plus he is smart enough to do things that are beyond Sean's expectations.
"You don't have to wait until you have time, don't you have time now? Let's call him down and have a look. I know that guy has been hovering above our heads. Many guards and maids in the palace have seen it and even stolen it.
A war horse from the palace guard." The princess regent was completely aroused.
Sean was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Stealing the war horse? Are you sure it was the giant eagle? It shouldn't be. This guy has never been short of food. What did it do to steal the war horse? When did it happen?"
"What happened the night before yesterday, a palace guard and two maids claimed at the same time that it was a black shadow that fell from the sky and captured the war horse. However, the light was not good at the time, so they were not sure about the huge black shadow.
Is it your giant eagle, but there should be no other creatures around Valesta that can lift the war horse to the sky? Or are those three people just looking at it at the same time?"
"What happened the night before yesterday? Why are you telling me now?" Sean frowned and said, "Sorry, my tone was a bit harsh. I will find out about it as soon as possible."
Sean's fierce reaction made Sophia Liya stunned. She smiled and comforted: "It's just a war horse, it's not a big deal, and it's not 100% sure."
"Stealing a war horse from the palace is not a big deal? What is a big deal? Stealing a person from the palace?" Sean's face darkened, "Your Highness, please send someone to take me to see where the war horse was taken. If it really appears,
This kind of behavior must be stopped as soon as possible without any indulgence."
A dark cloud flashed through Sean's mind, and he didn't tell Sophia Liya that Black Collar had a history of torturing and killing animals. Wouldn't he be a repeat offender?
According to the analysis of Arnold, the falconry expert of the Yongye Army, what Black Collar did before in the Yongye Army was not out of temperament, but with a clear purpose, which was to force the Thundering Golden Eagle out.
Ever since he was captured by the leader of the Eternal Night Army and embarked on the official journey back to ancient times, Black Collar has not shown any excessive behavior of killing animals.
Sean had almost forgotten this trouble. Now that he suddenly appeared in the Royal Palace of Lancelot, it was a bit nerve-wracking. Fortunately, Sophia Liya didn't think in other directions, otherwise he would jump in
Jacob Jiang can’t be clean either.
After Sean did this, Sophia Liya suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter. The opponent's giant eagle mount could steal a war horse from the palace. Doesn't it mean that the opponent can enter and exit the palace at will?
"Let's go and take a look together." Sophilia no longer treated this matter as a trivial matter. She nodded to her female guard captain and said, "Take us to the place where the war horse was lost."
"plz follow me."
Bi Luo walked through the palace with Sophia Liya and Sean for nearly a quarter of an hour. They stopped in a small courtyard, pointed to the stables not far away and said: "The war horse here is lost.
One."
Sean just walked around the small courtyard, then he breathed a long sigh of relief, turned to Sophia Liya and said: "Whether that war horse was taken away from the air or not, one thing is for sure, it definitely won't be."
The black collar did it.”
"How can you prove it, Your Majesty the Baron?" Bi Luo, the female guard chief, asked before Sophia Liya could speak.
Protecting the safety of the entire palace is her biggest responsibility. Let alone losing a war horse, even if she loses a cat or a dog, she has to get to the bottom of it. She just doesn't have clear evidence in her hand to prove that that
The war horse was stolen by the giant eagle, otherwise the Princess Regent would come looking for her even without her order.
"Later." Sean waved to everyone, "Please exit this courtyard for now."
After everyone exited, Sean took out a whistle with a strange shape and blew it hard, making a long and thin whistle.
"This is?" Sophia Liya showed a searching gaze.
"This is called an eagle whistle. Although the sound it makes is not loud, it can be heard from a long distance. Even if the black collar is several kilometers away, it can be heard." Sean explained while putting it in his mouth again.
Blow hard.
"You have so many weird things in your hands." Sophilia couldn't help but admire.
The biggest advantage of hanging out with Sean is that you will encounter some surprises inadvertently.
"It's okay, it's okay." Sean looked modest and said in his heart, there will only be more and more weird things in our hands, more than you can imagine.
After the sixth whistle sounded, the crisp eagle call came from the air.
It was vague at first, then it was clear and loud, and when I realized it, it was already close at hand.
Then a strong wind blew against his face, and a shadow was projected from the sky, like a small dark cloud.
"So big!"
"So beautiful."
Everyone present couldn't help but sigh.
That small dark cloud was none other than Sean's giant eagle mount, Black Collar.
With its wingspan fully extended, its body appears even larger, far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
Recently, although Sean often rides it to and from the royal capital of Valesta and the Swamp of Despair, he attaches great importance to confidentiality and takes off and lands in a small manor some distance away from the royal capital of Valesta.
.
The ownership rights of these small manors have naturally fallen into the hands of the Yongye military leader.
When he first appeared in front of the Council of Elders, his high-profile appearance was inconsistent with the low-key style he admired. Sean would not do this unless necessary.
Looking out and observing up close are two completely different things.
After a year of non-stop lightning strikes from the Thunder Tower, the Black Collar's transformation back to ancient times has been completed.
It’s just that I don’t know if the transformation has not been completely completed, or if this ancient transformation itself cannot fully reach the level of the ancestors, or the bloodline of the black collar itself is not pure.
Compared with the thundering golden eagle in the soul beast card, there is still a big difference in the black collar.
In terms of body shape, the black collar is larger, and its wingspan exceeds that of the Thundering Golden Eagle by more than four meters. However, the color of the wings is not pure, but the periphery is golden, and the core is still snow white, arranged one by one in an orderly manner, without any traces.
Chaos, streaks of fine electric light flowed between the gaps in the wings.
This makes it look like its snow-white body is covered with golden patterns. As its wings vibrate, it undulates on its body like waves, which is really beautiful.
This strong visual impact has a fatal attraction for those visual animals (women?).
He was so fascinated that he completely forgot the main purpose of recruiting it.
Fortunately, Sean did not forget it. He pointed to the small courtyard where the war horse was lost and said: "Your Highness, please see, this courtyard has towers on two sides, the main building on one side, and low stables below. Even if the war horse is in the center of the courtyard,
Black Collar swoops down and catches the horse, but if you want to take it up into the air, it will inevitably cause varying degrees of damage to the surrounding buildings. But I see that the surrounding buildings, including the stables, are intact, so I can conclude that this matter is not black.
That’s what the collar did.”
In fact, there is no need for Sean's analysis and explanation.
When Sophia Liya and others saw the black collar, they knew it was not the one who did it.
Because it is too large, and the courtyard is located in the old residential area of the palace. It is very old, and the layout is also a wartime layout. The structure is compact and there are many towers, so it is too narrow for it.
Sophilia did not speak, but turned to look at Bi Luo, the female guard chief.
Bi Luo immediately bowed and replied, "This matter was my mistake. I will immediately re-investigate the matter thoroughly and personally interrogate the three witnesses..."
"Bang!"
A loud noise interrupted Bi Luo's words.
"Someone jumped off the building."
"Someone committed suicide."
There was a panicked scream.
It happened so suddenly, and there was a distance, so the three knights present were unable to react.
They watched helplessly as a woman dressed as a palace maid fell down like a kite with its string cut off in front of them. Although the position she fell out of was not high, only less than seven or eight meters away, her head was facing down and her neck was twisted to the point of being twisted on the spot.
It is so incredible that there is no possibility of rescue.
"What's going on?" There was unconcealable anger in the Princess Regent's tone.
Her maid actually committed suicide by jumping off a building in front of her guests, causing her great loss of face.
The face of the female guard captain Bi Luo became even more ugly, and she whispered back: "This is one of the three witnesses of the missing war horse."
"Witnesses committed suicide? Such a coincidence?" Princess Regent said gloomily, "Find the other two witnesses as soon as possible."
"As ordered." Bi Luo, the female guard chief, responded, but her heels did not move.
"What are you still doing? Are you going to wait for them to collect the body?" Sophia Liya said angrily.
"But..." In the mind of the female guard captain, Sophilia's safety comes first, after all, such an unusual incident just happened.
"Do I still have to worry about my own safety in my own home? If that were the case, I would be the same without you." Sophia Liya became even more angry.
"As you command, Your Highness." Bi Luo reluctantly agreed. Before leaving, she kicked Black Rose Wendy who was leaning against the corner and snoring happily.
"What's wrong? Is it time to eat?" Wendy looked around with a confused look, and said with wide round eyes, "Where did you find that big eagle? It's so cute. Big eagle, come down here and let me touch it."
"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but draw a dark line. This guy has a confused temperament and is not very powerful. How on earth did she follow him here just now? It's a miracle that he hasn't gotten lost after so many years.
"Don't make trouble, I have to leave for a while to protect His Highness." Bi Luo warned.
"No problem, I'm here," Wendy assured her confidently, patting her swollen breasts.
In view of her previous confused performance, all she got was questioning looks, but Biluo had no other better choice and could only leave it to her.
"Is Your Highness too sensitive?" Sean also felt that this incident was a bit too much of a coincidence, and there was a bit of conspiracy in it.
"Hey, there are not so many coincidences in the world, especially this kind of thing. They swore on the front foot that they saw a giant eagle suspected of being His Excellency the Baron and stole the palace horse. Your Excellency just clarified this misunderstanding, and the other party committed suicide. Don't you think it's inside?
Is there a problem?" The Princess Regent sneered, "I would like to see who got into the palace with such little tricks."
Sean could only respond in silence, and a chill actually flashed through his heart.
If someone really aimed at this plan and tried to drive a wedge between the Princess Regent and the Yongye Army Commander, their tactics would be ruthless indeed.
After all, the giant eagle mount is just a bird of prey. Even if the regent princess and Sean communicate, there is no way to tell. Who knows whether the war horse was eaten by the black collar?
If there were some more recognizable body parts scattered on the outskirts of Valesta, it would be even more difficult to argue.
The other party doesn't have to do anything, they just need to sow a seed of doubt. Whenever similar situations like this occur in the future, people can't help but think about the black collar.
At that time, it seems that the only way Sean can win the trust of the Princess Regent is to bear the pain and kill the giant eagle mount Black Collar with his own hands.
This is equivalent to breaking off a leg, which greatly limits one's travel.
This conspiracy theory is just speculation at present, and the conclusion needs to wait for the results of Biluo's investigation. It is more likely to be dropped. After all, the current investigation methods are too backward, and it is not very difficult to restore the truth of the matter.
"Daying, why don't you come down?"
"May I have your name?"
"You're not Baron Sean's giant eagle mount, are you?"
"Daying, would you like me to sit down too?"
"If you don't come down, I will go up to find you!"
Wendy, who was woken up by Bi Luo's kick, was full of energy and no longer looked as sleepy as usual. However, the reason for this was not her strong sense of responsibility to protect Sophia Liya, but her strong love for the black collar.
, instantly transformed into a little chatterbox, chattering endlessly around a black collar.
But the person she was talking to, Black Collar, didn't even look at her.
"If you don't answer, I'll take it as if you agreed." Wendy's thinking mode also cannot be measured by common sense. In one sprint, she ran to the bottom of the tower without taking the stairs, and climbed along the bulges on the wall like an ape.
Climb up.
"Wendy, don't mess around."
"Don't mess with the black collar."
Sophia Liya and Sean screamed at the same time.
"Haha!" After Wendy climbed to the highest point, she exhaled and shouted. She kicked the ground hard and jumped into the air. The force of the kick was so strong that even the people below the tower could clearly hear the sound of the stone.
The sound of cracking.
Wendy, who was in the air, opened her hands, like a young eagle, and flew towards the saddle on the neck of the black collar.
Sophia Liya's order didn't work, but Sean's did.
The black collar was stunned for a moment and did not react immediately, allowing Wendy to land on its back smoothly and climb onto the saddle.
This has stirred up a hornet's nest.
The black collar was so angry that he didn't even pay attention to Sean's orders.
Chirp!
With an angry hawk's cry, the black collar soared into the sky with a whirlwind.
While climbing higher, he spun wildly, trying to throw Wendy off his back.
It only has a tailor-made saddle on its back, but it fully considers the danger in the air.
Once your legs are inserted into the leg rings, you can easily hang an adult's weight upside down even without using any force.
Not to mention that Wendy, who has strength comparable to that of a champion knight, would not have an easy time holding her body in place.
"Fun! Fun! Come again! Come again!"
The black collar not only failed to knock Wendy off her back, but Wendy laughed excitedly.
