Chapter 385: Chapter 283: I am the Iron Plate!
"Die!"
Zhu Na let out a heart-wrenching cry, her palm brewing with tremendous mana!
"Strategic-grade magic!" The girl beside Zhu Na screamed.
This level of magic was incredibly powerful, usually cast by multiple people at the same time. Although less powerful when cast by a single person, its casting speed was significantly faster! Once cast successfully, half the city block would be obliterated!
Heh.
Ai Lin simply chuckled, vanished from sight, and in a split second grabbed Zhu Na’s hand preparing to cast the magic, while her palm struck Zhu Na’s neck, causing Zhu Na to slump to the ground.
And the magic that hadn’t had time to disperse was directly annihilated in Ai Lin’s palm.
"You actually used strategic-grade magic in a duel, do you have water for brains?" Ai Lin shook her head and said.
Next to them, Zhu Na’s boyfriend finally came to his senses, saw Zhu Na fall to the ground and was extremely angry. He yelled at the Dragon Knights behind him: "Attack! Kill them all!"
But only about a dozen people stood up, still deeply apprehensive.
"I say, Sent, when did you become our commander? Even if one day you really do become the Vice Captain’s son-in-law, I’m afraid it’s not your turn to call the shots, right?" A Dragon Knight sneered.
Sent’s face instantly grew even uglier.
"This won’t be the end!" Sent roared out in defiance, picked up Zhu Na, pushed through the crowd of Dragon Knights, and left.
The remaining Dragon Knights at the scene awkwardly nodded at Long Yi, then also left.
"You humans, it’s not easy for you." Isrile said with a laugh, still eating even at this point, she hadn’t stopped. If Long Yi could pose a threat to her, then these people were simply beneath her notice.
"In the army, nurturing superior-subordinate relationships is crucial. Although they do not agree with Zhu Na’s actions, they have to follow her because her father is their direct superior. It’s essentially workplace politics." Long Yi said with a laugh.
"I don’t understand, and it sounds boring." Isrile said.
"Extremely boring, but, I guess something interesting will happen soon." Long Yi said.
While Long Yi and the others were joyfully enjoying their barbecue, at the outskirts of the city, on the camp above. One of the Vice Captains of the Fourth Legion, Zhu Na’s father, Osborne, was gazing somberly at the people in front of him.
Zhu Na was there, crying and wailing. Sent was looking guilty, his head lowered in shame. And the group of Dragon Knights behind them were trying to avoid his gaze.
"On the first day of our arrival, you caused all this trouble!" Osborne reprimanded in a low voice, his hoarse voice giving a sense of authority.
"But Daddy! That fat man insulted me! And their accomplices, Long Yi, and Ai Lin! Especially that Ai Lin! Posing as a Fairy Dragon, deceiving people, and she knocked me out just now! If it hadn’t been for Sent protecting me, your daughter would have been beaten to death there today!" Zhu Na screamed.
"Protecting with his life..."
Chuckle —
A few Dragon Knights couldn’t help but laugh. Do you really think that fool Sent risked his life to protect you? In their view, the reason your life is still intact is solely due to the opponent’s good mood. Otherwise, given your pathetic combat skills, any one of the Dragon Knights here could take you down in an instant.
Hearing the laughter, Sent suddenly turned around, glaring at the direction from which the laughter came. However, in return, he received more provoking glances.
Are you kidding, we might fear Vice Captain Osborne, but does that mean we should be afraid of you, fool?
"Is what you said true?" Osborne asked coldly, his eyes fixed on Sent.
"Y...Yes!" Sent quickly turned back, adamant in his answer.
Nonsense!
In Osborne’s eyes, Sent was just talking nonsense. How powerful is Long Yi? Others might not know, but he, Osborne, a prominent Vice Captain, would obviously know! If Long Yi really wanted to kill, could you even stop him?
But Osborne didn’t expose him. How could he not understand his own daughter’s character? Zhu Na’s mother died in childbirth, and Osborne had always been extremely doting towards this child. She was alright when she was young, but at some point, she gradually developed this arrogant character, she’s even not afraid of her own father, let alone others?
Although Zhu Na and Sent claimed that the other party had insulted them, Osborne didn’t have to guess to know that Zhu Na’s attitude must have been poor as well. Otherwise, how much of a scoundrel must someone be to insult a blind date, especially a girl?
However, this matter cannot be left as it is. But should he, a dignified Vice Captain of the Dragon Knights, stoop to bullying children?
After a pause, Osborne suddenly said: "I don’t care about the details of this matter, but you brought this on yourselves. Think about how to end it. Remember, you are the glorious Dragon Knights of the Fourth Legion, don’t embarrass the Legion!"
Having said that, Osborne turned around and left!
Zhu Na watched her father’s retreating figure, her tears instantly drying up. She looked at Sent beside her: "What should we do? Brother!"
"Go and invite them to our station! We’re going to have a good talk with them this time!" Sent said fiercely.
Immediately, two Dragon Knights set off.
Only now did Isrile finally finish eating.
Yes, she was finally full.
When it came to paying the bill, Long Yi was nearly scared to death by the amount. Fortunately, his pockets were deep enough. After paying in full, Long Yi was relieved that he had previously splurged on Isrile using the national treasury, otherwise this meal alone would definitely have made him broke.
At this moment, Long Yi finally experienced the result of two foodies meeting.
Because of the after-effects of the Giant Swallow Dragon, the chef’s appetite was also greatly increased. It wasn’t that he had a Hammerspace stomach like Isrile. Instead, he digested food extremely fast. Just now, the chef and Isrile began racing to eat meat, it was absolutely earth-shattering.
However, fortunately, the chef was a type of person whose reach exceeds his grasp.
Just as everyone was about to leave, two Dragon Knights entered.
"Oh? Are you running away as soon as you catch wind of us?" The two Dragon Knights smirked.
"Brother Long, you’re truly wise beyond belief!" Wesley immediately turned around and gave a thumbs up.
"Haha, it’s nothing, you shouldn’t blindly worship!" Long Yi laughed.
"Hey, you guys, our vice captain calls for you. Do you know where the Dragon Knight’s headquarters are located outside of the city? If you don’t, ask for directions along the way!" The two Dragon Knights, with an inexplicably smug look on their faces, turned and left after speaking.
"Brother Long, can you really stand it? We may accept that they look down on us, but they even dare to look down on you!" Wesley immediately started fanning the flames.
"I really can’t bear it." Long Yi laughed, "But, I’m not interested in men."
"So, we’re not going?"
"Of course we’re going! How can we not take advantage of such a good opportunity for laughter! How can we live up to the dinner I kindly treated!"
"Hey, Brother Long, your unspoken words just now, they don’t feel quite right!" Wesley seemed to have noticed something.
"Yes, yes, your feeling is just right! Let’s go!"
Osborne has a decent relation with Captain Sweel, thus, after Osborne left, he went to look for Sweel, in an attempt to understand the current situation. When Captain Sweel heard that Zhu Na had actually messed with Long Yi and even provoked Zhu Na, his face turned dark.
"My old friend, don’t blame me for not warning you. This time, you’ve certainly kicked a iron plate." Captain Sweel said.
"How so?" Osborne asked.
"You haven’t had any personal contact with Long Yi, but you must have heard all sorts of rumours about him. This guy, he is the kind of person who always goes all out and never leaves himself a way out." Captain Sweel said.
"What, does he dare to kill my daughter?" Osborne laughed.
"Do you think he wouldn’t?" Captain Sweel retorted without any hint of humor.
"What?"
"I’ve been in contact with him for quite a while. From what I know, Long Yi has a rather extreme personality and tends to do whatever he wants. On the one hand, he almost never considers the consequences of his actions; on the other hand, if something happens to his friends, he will be very cautious. Didn’t I tell you? He really doesn’t mind whether his enemies are male or female, he will really hit hard either way. My old friend, to put it bluntly, your daughter and her young boyfriend with their domineering attitude, the only reason they’re alive is that Long Yi didn’t want to cause trouble at the chubs’ house. Otherwise, think about the Third Crown Prince."
At this point, Osborne felt a sudden jump in his heart.
Those in high positions like him have always had a habitual overlook because of the enormous power they hold in their hands. However, there are always some people in this world who don’t care about power!
"He thinks that he saved the White Dragon Empire, the Emperor trusts him, he can look down on everything ..." Osborne’s eyes were cold.
"No, even before he hadn’t saved the White Dragon Empire, when the Emperor trusted him, he always looked down upon everything." Captain Sweel said, "You’ve just arrived, so I haven’t had the chance to tell you. Did you know? The first time Long Yi came to this headquarters, the first time he rode a flying Dragon, he almost killed one of my subordinates. The action was swift and clean. If it wasn’t for Vincent’s quick reaction, then the person cleaning your room today would be someone else."
"And you let him go? Is the military court just decoration?"
"Because he was in the right,"
"Which right?"
"Yes, if you really plan to have a ’dialogue’ with Long Yi, I advise you to control your temper. Long Yi might have a bit of a stickler for morals. Whenever he takes action, he’s always on the side that’s finally right. He’ll provoke you in all sorts of ways, making you strike first. As soon as you make a move, his goal has been achieved."
Cautioned Captain Sweel.
Osborne nodded, indicating that he understood. He and Captain Sweel were old friends for many years, of course he won’t lie to himself. If what Sweel said was true, then this Long Yi was difficult to deal with. Especially, he was so powerful!
Just as the two of them fell silent, a guard outside knocked and entered.
"Captain, Long Yi and the others have arrived."
Upon hearing this name, Osborne felt a jump in his heart. Clearly, there was only one possibility that Long Yi and the others would come here, and that was his darling daughter must have found him!
"Bring them here." Said Captain Sweel.
