The entire castle of Mikalos is like a microcosm of the Cold Wind City. Signs of war have appeared, and people wearing armor are constantly coming and going in the castle, bringing a sense of urgency to this majestic castle.

The days in Cold Wind City are very short, and it's often pitch dark in the evening.

This greatly limits the activity time of Chai Anping and Lux. Neither of them interferes in the affairs of Cold Wind City. Chai Anping does not even need to make any preparations for Walsh's plan.

He is only responsible for the last step——

When the dragon appears, kill it!

These days, he took the time to read the autobiography of the dragon-slaying hero. To be honest, the Freljord people are generally not very educated. This biography is also full of grammatical errors. It can only be said that it is barely readable. This is a

The story is full of arrogance, but if you judge from the results, his arrogance is not too much.

The name of the dragon-slaying warrior is "Xin", who comes from a remote ancient tribe "Lamanda". He is the most powerful warrior of the tribe for hundreds of years. He uses a black stone rod obtained from a mysterious cave to conquer any ice field.

The monsters or animal spirits on the ground were smashed to pieces under his stone stick.

The power he used was not only "form and mind", but he also accidentally obtained a certain bloodline inheritance in the cave, gaining extremely powerful power.

In the biography, he claimed that he was immortal and that even the ancient gods could not kill him.

Xin has the arm strength to crush giant beasts, and also has various magical abilities of flesh and blood. He is like the "Great Witch" in ancient legends, but he is completely different.

Xin was originally a genius on the snowy plains. He realized his own form and meaning very early. With the help of this power, he became extremely powerful. His reputation spread far more in Freljord than his own tribe.

Even further away, even those demigod beast spirits are unwilling to be his enemy.

There are not many relevant biographical descriptions, and this was not considered a big achievement in Xin's mind.

He considers his greatest achievement in life to be slaying the dragon!

It was an evil dragon that monopolized a large area of ​​snow and spread death and terror everywhere. The mortals living in that snowy area all trembled with its evil name of "Pedong".

Legend has it that Peidon has existed in the land of Freljord for a long time. He is a giant dragon that has already grown up. Some people even claim that he contains part of the source of the dragon's bloodline. Not even Anivia.

Willing to be its enemy.

Peidong is cruel and tyrannical. It keeps mortals in captivity, and occasionally selects the blood food it likes, and forces the mortals to believe in it. Otherwise, any creature that intrudes will be mercilessly killed by it.

There are many legends about Peidong recorded in the biography, and it seems that Xin likes to use this method to highlight his power.

During a hunting trip of the Lamanda tribe, Peidong attacked the tribe's garrison and robbed a large number of children. When Xin returned with the hunting warriors, what awaited them was only their shattered hometown and cold corpses.

This made the snowfield warrior furious. After settling the remaining tribesmen, he resolutely embarked on a journey to find Peidong.

The ending of the story is naturally that the ancient demon dragon was bleeding on the ice peak, and the strong human being bathed in the hot dragon's blood walked down the mountain, becoming a new legend.

Xin left a lot of experiences in fighting dragons in his autobiography, seemingly to increase his credibility in slaying dragons. Is it no wonder that Walsh specially handed such a book to Chai Anping? For the next dragon-slaying hero,

Say? This is indeed a very valuable experience.

"If that ice dragon is Shyvana's sibling? Then it must not be an adult yet, and it cannot be as powerful as the Peidong Demonic Dragon."

In fact, what is more attractive about this biography is the "mysterious cave" described by Xin!

After leaving the cave, he suddenly possessed otherworldly power and was still alive after suffering multiple fatal attacks from the dragon? Finally, he killed the exhausted dragon.

This ability—the ability to be immortal? It’s so unique!

Barbarian King!

But the experience of the Barbarian King has nothing to do with the caves described in the biography, and even the source of his power is different.

After he gained the power of rage, he suspected that the Barbarian King might have awakened the same emotional power as himself on the night when his tribe was destroyed? This may also be the reason why he can maintain vitality despite fatal injuries.

"This snowfield has so many secrets."

He couldn't help but sigh that the Barbarian King's tribe should have been destroyed by Darkborn Aatrox as expected, which involved another force.

This continent filled with ancient magic and mysterious energy is simply... so interesting.

What if Chai Anping was a so-called archeology enthusiast? Here he would definitely be able to see a microcosm of the changes in Valoran over the past tens of millions of years.

"Gracie, where are we going tonight?"

Lux's inquiry brought Chai Anping back from his wandering thoughts. No matter when, Cold Wind City is a boring city for the people in the capital, not to mention the large number of caravans and theater troupes due to the possible war.

They all moved south and away from here.

The two of them were walking on the empty streets, watching the unknown batch of patrol guards pass by.

Most areas of Cold Wind City have entered a curfew, and only a small number of night markets are still alive, making the crowds here even denser.

The tavern was full of drunkards who stayed out all night. If they just looked at the scene in the tavern, no one would have thought that this city was about to be invaded by a hundred thousand Freljord tribesmen.

"Um……"

Chai Anping frowned as he pondered this question, which was even more difficult than the secrets of Freljord.

He has put this question on the same level as common human confusions such as "what to eat at night" and "should I go to the cafeteria?"

"It's so cold, why don't we get on the kang and sleep quickly?"

He decided to return to the main winter activities of simple people.

"I think, let's go for a walk on the snow peak on the right in the evening?" Lux answered the question and did not consider Chai Anping's suggestion at all.

"Don't cause trouble for other scouts!"

Chai Anping knocked on her thick felt hat angrily.

She has already read the leisure books that Lux brought, and now that Chai Anping is watching, she is unable to search for the banned books in the North. It can be said that she is very desperate.

Looking at Lux's bulging cheeks, Chai Anping suddenly thought:

"These taverns are a good place to gather information. There is a chance that there will be Noxian spies. How about we catch the traitor?"

"oh?!"

Lux's eyes flashed brightly, and her tone suddenly became urgent and solemn: "For the safety of Cold Wind City, this is our unshirkable responsibility, Mr. Shelley! Let us set off as soon as possible!"

Detective game!

yes!

Chai Anping looked away clearly, without any disturbance in his heart. He should have thought of this bad idea a long time ago!

The girl's curiosity is sometimes stronger than that of a cat. When he was in the capital, he even dared to follow him into a prostitute.

They randomly found a pub with a better environment and walked in directly.

Demacia is a country that abides by morality, and the overall quality of its people is relatively high. Therefore, although many people in the tavern were drunk and talking loudly, there were very few dirty words. The lively scene further inspired Lux's exploration.

want.

"welcome!"

The waiter led them to the bar. At this time, there were no booths or independent tables available for a young couple.

Chai Anping tugged on the brim of Lux's hat and pulled her back.

"If you act so obviously, even a fool will know that your motives are impure."

"……oh!"

Lux huddled beside him obediently, fiddling with her hat with her small hands.

She is already in the zone!

Detective mode!

Chai Anping didn't want Lux to ruin his relaxing time at night. Speaking of which, he hadn't been to a place like this for a long time. When he was in the training gym, Valen would date him every day, but now that he is in a high position, he doesn't do so much.

Relaxed occasion.

He took Lux's hand and sat down at the edge of the bar. The bartender came over and asked the two of them what drinks they wanted.

Lux looked over for help.

"Ahem...a glass of rum and a glass of fruit wine, the alcohol content is lower."

"OK!"

Seeing that Lux was still looking around, Chai Anping began to tell her some nonsense about spying on intelligence.

"First of all, we must not stare directly at others, as this will attract other people's attention." He whispered in Lux's ear: "We must learn to use the corner of our eyes and use shields...

...Well, leaning on my shoulder would be a good choice.

This is the most basic requirement, and your body movements should be more natural... Yes, you are leaning on me too, why do you feel so heavy again, Your Highness?"

During this period, Chai Anping took the two glasses of wine pushed over by the bartender, took a sip, and ordered a few plates of barbecue to go with the wine.

People in the North do not follow martial ethics, so Chai Anping specifically emphasized that the alcohol content of the fruit wine should be lower, but it seemed to be still too high for Lux, and it was so spicy that she stuck out her tongue from time to time.

"Your Highness, you must remain normal when drinking! Keep a low profile!"

He said seriously: "Otherwise, it will easily attract the attention of interested people. Come on, take another big sip."

Lux:......

While teasing Lux, Chai Anping himself was also looking at the tavern.

He hadn't thought about uncovering any Noxian spies. If he had such a small chance of being caught, it would be hard to find anyone.
