The Emerald Tower

Chapter 609: Onedon's Legacy Ⅰ

Night, Horn Town.

With the help of the cook, Leni finally made a decent dinner.

If you leave out the charred steak, undercooked soup, and slightly sticky salad, it's a satisfying dinner.

Obviously, the culinary skills of the young lady of the Havel family are far less famous than her tea skills.

"Er, or I will let the cook..."

Lenny sat at one side of the table, looking embarrassed at the table of food.

"Need not!"

As Dean spoke, he took the plate and ate very quickly.

Although the cooking skills are a bit poor, but for Dean who used to rely on eating some small creatures in dark corners raw, such cooking skills are good enough.

Seeing Dean eating, Leni couldn't help chuckling.

She stood up from one side, waved her hand, let the cook and waiters leave, and walked behind Dean, serving soup and vegetables for Dean.

When Dean stopped, she put her hand on Dean's shoulder and kneaded it slowly.

"I just learned this, and I'm not very proficient..."

Leni whispered, with a slight shyness in her sapphire-like eyes.

"thanks!"

After a while, Dean finally spoke slowly. With an apology, he took a deep breath, turned his head, and looked at Leni's face from bottom to top.

Under the light, it is so soft and comfortable.

"sorry!"

Dean paused for a moment, then spoke again, and then. Dean waved his hand. Leni's inquiry was stopped. Instead, he said to himself: "Let me say it first... If I don't say it now, I am afraid that I will not have the courage for a while-I originally hoped to give Leni a safe and comfortable environment, and let you accompany me Go through life, but, but, there may be some errors now..."

All of a sudden, Leni tightened the hand that was rubbing Dean's shoulder, which made Dean's words pause,

He continued to look at Leni. Asked: "It's nothing else, it's just that I can't give you a safe and comfortable environment anymore, are you still willing to follow me?"

"Just that?"

Leni asked with a smile.

"Probably it will be like this at the beginning, and later, later...it will be more serious--abusive language, suspicion, insults will all appear, and there may be displacement!"

Dean said groaningly.

"So what?"

Leni asked back with a constant smile.

"All this is not for you, but because of Your Highness... I feel it's unfair to you!"

Dean looked at Leni and said.

"Do you have any admiration for His Highness?"

Lenny asked directly.

"I want to repay the favor, whether it's His Highness, or you—His Highness's grace for saving my life, and you... are my first love. I hope my first love is my wife!"

Dean and Lenny's eyes met. Without the slightest dodge.

"that's enough!"

Leni took a slight step forward, half bent. Letting Dean's head rest on her chest, she put her chin on Dean's head and said softly.

"As your wife, I support all the decisions you make, and I will bear your suffering with you!"

Leni's voice was soft, just like the smile when the two met for the first time.

It made Dean intoxicated and unwilling to give up.

"thanks!"

Dean put his hand on Leni's and said again.

In the restaurant, the atmosphere is calm and peaceful.

The wife blesses her husband.

The husband was grateful to his wife, and at the same time, let go of the last shred of doubts in his heart.

Dean knew exactly what he was facing now.

The emerald nobles, blinded by their interests, are trying to start the war.

However, these greedy guys didn't understand what the prey they wanted to devour was what it was, it was an astonishing beast.

Not only is the difference in the highest combat power, but the comparison of ordinary combat power is even worse.

Except for the soldiers directly under the Marquess of York, Dean didn't think that other city defense troops and local troops had the ability to fight against the Xiti army.

Especially when Xiti can directly mobilize 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers at the first time, and there will be no less than 10,000 cavalry among them.

Dean has no hope for this war at all.

But how can he stop this war?

Even if he made the Marquis of York, the king, and the nobles give up, would Xiti give up?

Don't forget that Xiti himself is the aggressor in the Blood Moon War.

Their desire for land, wealth, and population is no less than that of emerald nobles.

Therefore, war is inevitable!

However, more preparations can be made to seize some opportunities!

Dean took another deep breath and made a final decision in his mind.

...

Under the dark night, the bright moonlight shines straight down.

Dean stood in the shadow of the moonlight intersecting the building, making his figure more and more hidden, as if he had turned into a shadow.

His footsteps seemed to be slow but fast, but they didn't make any sound.

After turning around the street in front of him, Dean stopped in his tracks.

This is exactly the location marked on the map hidden in the notes by Onedon, the ZTE leader of the fraternity.

Aleander led those newly trained subordinates to help Dean find it.

And, confirmed again and again.

"grown ups!"

Aleander stepped out of the shadows.

As always, the assassin was wearing a cloak to cover his face.

"I have opened the passage inside, and cleared all the traps, but there is nothing that you should pay attention to. This is an abandoned laboratory!"

Aleander reported truthfully.

Dean didn't elaborate on where he was looking for, but only said to look for some special items.

therefore. Aleander didn't know that this was a secret laboratory that Onedon left in the Emerald City. otherwise. Aleander, who was born in the Brotherhood, would definitely not make such a tone.

"Help me stay here!"

Dean walked into the side room, looked at the opened tunnel, and gave instructions to Aleander.

"Yes, my lord!"

Aleander bowed in response, and at the same time passed a torch.

After lighting the torch, Dean jumped into the tunnel.

With the light of the flame, Dean easily saw the surrounding situation——

It's ten feet high. The passage, which is about seven or eight feet wide, is made of rocks, and the ground is dry, but with a stale air.

Obviously, this place has undergone special treatment, but it has been closed for a long time.

Glancing at the wall and ladder behind him, Dean walked forward slowly.

All kinds of arrows, flippers, and poisons can be seen everywhere along the way.

A road that is less than a hundred feet, there is a trap almost every foot.

Although not very advanced, it is annoying.

At the end of the passage, there is an abandoned laboratory.

Again, because of special handling. And there is no dust, but there is a trace of decay. And, as Aleander said, there was nothing of note here.

The experimental equipment itself is some old antiques, but it is not much different from the current experimental equipment.

In the container, there is no medicine.

It's completely abandoned.

And in the surrounding area, there are no secret passages or secret rooms.

Dean was not surprised by this. With Aleander's ability, if he wanted to find something hidden, he couldn't hide it from him.

And if you don't find it, then it really doesn't exist.

Or, it has exceeded the general cognition.

Dean took out the wizard notebook that belonged to Onedon in the next moment-although the pages inside were changing to just a map.

Dean held the notebook in his right hand and walked slowly in the laboratory.

The changes in this notebook before have already explained its extraordinaryness, but after arriving at the destination, there is no gain at all, obviously the key point has not been found.

Naturally, this notebook became the key point that Dean could find.

As if to confirm Dean's guess, when he held the notebook close to the wall of the laboratory, the cover of the notebook began to glow.

Dean was familiar with that faint, soft glow.

In this light, the notebook itself produced a huge force and flew towards the wall.

Dean didn't stop him, but just waited and watched.

After all, everything now seems to be in line with his guess.

The light was incomparably rich, and then became indifferent again.

When the light completely dissipated, the notebook also disappeared!

However, a secret passage appeared in front of Dean.

Compared with the previous passage, the secret passage in front of him was very narrow and low, so that when Dean passed, he not only had to half-bend, but also sometimes awkwardly turned sideways.

Especially when Dean still has to watch out for possible pitfalls, the pace of progress is not fast.

However, after about half an hour, Dean still came to the end of the secret passage.

A small rusty iron door.

Dean checked for a while, and after confirming that there was no danger, he slowly pushed open the iron door——

The weight of the iron door is a little lighter than expected.

Or, to be more precise, it is as weightless as a feather.

And behind the door, a huge space appeared in front of Dean.
