Chapter 150 Schroeder's Speech Stratford, Duchy of gently pushed open the secret door on the wall and entered the hall. Although all the members of the Arcane Hermitage have not arrived yet, there is already a lot of discussion in the venue, and most members have a layer of gloom on their faces - that is the panic and uncertainty about the future. Most of the members of the Anzeta branch are northern nobles who are used to a life of luxury and debauchery. But now, the shadow of the red dragon is covering the entire north, and the various principalities are on the verge of collapse. They are also afraid that the war will spread to their hometowns, and then their noble status will no longer exist. Seeing Cassius coming, the tall female noble was the first to greet him. "Good day, Mr. Ember." "Good day, Ms. Tulip, you are still so beautiful." Cassius responded politely. Not only this noblewoman, but many others came forward to talk to her, and some even tried to please her. At the last Mathematical Olympiad, his generosity had attracted the attention of many people. Everyone speculated about his identity. The most reasonable and widely accepted guess was that "Yuhuo" was a bastard of a noble family from the southern Farland Empire who wanted to expand his family's influence in Anzeta. However, at this moment, there was a hint of worry in the beautiful eyes of this noblewoman.
Cassius asked knowingly, "Ms. Tulip, are you worried about something?" Tulip sighed and replied, "Not only me, but everyone here feels deeply sorry for the demise of the Rackman Principality." "That evil dragon was so terrible and cruel. It is said that he ruthlessly trampled on the sacred traditions of the North and brutally killed many people of noble blood. It is said that on that day, the blood dyed the Council Square red." "Yeah, it's really shocking." Cassius nodded slightly and followed her words. Another member echoed: The evil dragon's brutal rule will inevitably be overthrown, and the righteous will stand up. " "He actually put the noble northern nobles on an equal footing with those lowly people, those gray animals. It's really unreasonable!" "This is a complete destruction of order in the North!" "Yes, this evil dragon will definitely be punished!" "Our Trish family has already recruited adventurers to go and destroy that evil dragon!" "If war comes, our Principality of Fano will fight to the death! We will never let our territory fall into the hands of monsters!" Cassius listened to these impassioned speeches and secretly memorized what they said in his heart, as well as the families and countries of the speakers. "It's just a few dozen heads chopped off, what a fuss! The reaction of these northern nobles is really fierce." "But it's okay, let's take it one step at a time. "You'll get used to it one day." Cassius made up his mind secretly. The nobleman never imagined that the harsh words he had spoken would bring disaster to his family in the near future. Following the attention of the crowd, the "Silver Star" Olivia appeared in the hall again. "Good day, Miss Starry."
Cassius took the initiative to greet. She did not answer, but used the communication technique to bring a clear female voice that only Cassius could hear. "I asked my grandfather, and he said that gold dragons don't like Anzeta, a place with little magic. In addition to an adult female gold dragon, there is only a young male gold dragon temporarily living here. If I remember correctly, your name is Angel, the son of the ancient gold dragon Castro, right?" Olivia raised her eyebrows and looked at him, as if she knew some secret, with a rather smug expression on her face. Cassius was stunned at first, and then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really didn't expect that this clever silver dragon would actually help him complete the information of his vest, saving him the trouble of looking for information to disguise his identity. So he neither confirmed nor denied it, but responded with the same communication technique. "Ms. Fanxing, it is against the rules of the Arcane Hermitage to rashly snoop on the identity information of members. As the head of the Anzeta branch, are you going to take the lead in breaking the rules?" "It was obviously you first" "I didn't deliberately search for it. I just heard it from others. There is a fundamental difference between these two things." "Hmph, a pretentious golden dragon." It was still a luxuriously decorated hall with a huge round table. The members of the Arcane Hermitage took their seats one by one. "Now that everyone is here..." Olivia was about to go through the various aspects of the Arcane Hermitage as usual, but someone interrupted her and spoke first. She frowned slightly, but still nodded politely, indicating that the man should continue speaking. "Excuse me, Ms. Star." "I didn't mean to interrupt the meeting, but I think there are more important things to discuss at this moment. This is in line with what Lord Trafallo said, 'If necessary, fight evil together.'" The person who spoke was the "Grey Eagle" Schroeder. His face was full of wrinkles of fatigue and worry, and he looked twenty years older than before. At this moment, Schroeder's face was solemn, as if covered by a layer of haze, and his tone was full of sorrow. "Now that things have come to this, I will not hide my identity anymore." "I was once a court wizard of the Rackman Principality and a noble northerner. But now I am just a homeless person wandering around." After hearing his words, no matter what the people present thought in their hearts, they all deliberately showed expressions of pity and regret on their faces. Schroeder's words gradually became hoarse. "I witnessed with my own eyes the red dragon destroying our coalition forces and our city, but I was powerless to do anything." "Now, this red dragon has destroyed the country I served, brutally oppressed my people, and mercilessly slaughtered the nobles of the principality." All the members present were deeply saddened upon hearing this, and some even shed tears for this tragic situation. Olivia frowned slightly when she heard this. She said softly, "But after my investigation, the Duke Brad you are loyal to is indeed a vampire, and the Burning Kingdom has not yet committed any acts of massacring its people. What you said is a bit -"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Schroeder's fierce words. "Ms. Star, I can only say that you are too kind and naive! Gods, that is a red dragon! The embodiment of evil and cruelty! How could you be so unreasonable as to believe the lies told by a red dragon!" "Vampire? What a complete slander! I think he is the vampire who greedily sucked blood from the entire Northern Kingdom!" "And who knows what kind of tragedy this evil dragon will cause in the future? Today he dares to slaughter the nobles, tomorrow he will dare to eat up the entire city, or even all the humans in the North!" "I" Olivia wanted to retort, arguing that she had learned the information through magical images, not from the Burning Kingdom's leaflets. But Schroeder intentionally or unintentionally ignored her questions and kept on talking passionately, leaving her no chance to explain herself. At this moment, Schroeder's speech had reached its climax. He stood up and looked around at everyone with an extremely tragic look. "Everyone here, the four hundred-year-old Rackman Principality has perished. The next one is the Norton Principality. What's the next one?" "If you don't resist, the next person to be slaughtered by the dragon may be you!" (End of this chapter)
