Qianmoken was almost collapsed. Until the roar of the demon dragon went away, Miss Kadiya pulled her hand and shook it, she moved her eyes away from the brilliant yellow fire. She stared at Miss Kadiya blankly, as if she had lost her soul.

"Miss Ximoken? Are you okay?" Kadiya looked at her worriedly. After learning that Hemi was going to use as bait to attract the demon dragon, Simoken wanted to stop the mercenaries and Hemi no matter what. But in the end she could only be forcibly taken away from the city wall by Kadiya's strong female guard.

After that, she stood by the window in Kadiya's room, staring at the direction of the city wall, but with the position of the window, she could only see the inner courtyard and the top of the city, but she could not see anything in the open space below the city wall. Until the roar of the demon dragon sounded, her heart felt as if it was grabbed by a hand.

No, no...Hermi...

Then the mercenaries' crossbows were fired on the city wall, and the demon dragon roared and ignited the yellow flames soaring into the sky. The mercenaries screamed and fled from the city wall. The demon dragon climbed up the city wall and spread the terrifying wings. Ximoken saw the demon dragon's one-eyed one as scorching as molten gold.

What she didn't know was that just as the yellow flames ignited, she burst into tears in despair as if almost collapsed, so that even Kadiya and the two female guards who were beside her dared not come forward. Her hands tightly grasped the iron fence of the window, and the fire was shining in her eyes and tears.

No, no no!! Hemi!

No, no, no...Hermi...Mr. Contin...

In the end, Ximoken was pulled open from the window by the female guard and saved his life. The flames of the demon dragon ignited the spire where Kadiya's room was, and the yellow flames ignited the entire window and melted the iron bars. Kadiya and the female guard took Ximoken and hurriedly escaped from the room, and the outside of the wall that was bearing the dragon's breath had also melted.

"Miss Simoken! We must leave here immediately." Kadiya, who had already felt the heat coming from her room, said to her, but Simoken just looked at her with red and unsightly eyes, tears still sliding down her cheeks.

Kadiya pressed her shoulders and shook them hard: "Miss Simoken! Be cheered up! Hemi is definitely fine!"

"Himi..." After hearing this name, Kadiya noticed that there was finally a look in her eyes, "Himi..."

"Miss!" At this time, the female guard standing next to them noticed that the door they closed had begun to smoke, "We must leave here immediately! We have to call the servants to put out the fire!"

Kadiya didn't know if there were any servants in the city now, nor did she know if the yellow flames could be extinguished. But the female guard said so much, Kadiya nodded: "You must leave here immediately." Then she looked at the other female guard: "You support Miss Simoken, and we will go to the circular hall immediately."

After Kadiya finished speaking, she took a step. She was still barefoot, but the cold touch on the ground made her feel a little relieved because she also felt the heat of the flames. This is still my Golden Waterfall City. Kadiya told herself that I have been walking barefoot here countless times since I was a child.

I am... the daughter of the Duke of Jin Falls. Kadiya told herself that she raised her head, then reached out to comb her hair, tied her soft golden hair behind her head, and then walked quickly along the corridor. A female guard followed her. Although she should be walking behind Kadiya according to the rules and etiquette, there was a narrow window on one side of the corridor they were walking through, facing the burning city wall outside. The stench of sulfur came in with the roar of the demon dragon. The female guard stared at the demon dragon on the city wall, for fear that it would spit out the dragon breath at them again; while the other female guard directly hugged Ximoken and followed them with a calm face.

Kadiya has never looked out the narrow window before. Don't look, Kadiya told herself that she would be afraid if she saw it. The daughter of the Duke of Jin Falls City should not be afraid.

In the round hall, the wives and children of nobles of all sizes in Jinhu City were there. They must be very scared. Kadiya told herself that she must fulfill her duties as the Duke's daughter at this moment.

A vibration came from the city wall. The heavy and long tail of the demon dragon hit the wall heavily. Kadiya quickly reached out to hold on to the wall. Can't be afraid, Kadiya gritted her teeth tightly to prevent the trembling gum from biting her tongue. Don't be afraid. She tried hard to stretch her frowns that were caused by the stench of sulfur and fear.

Don't be afraid. She told herself again, she couldn't be afraid. If she cried like a little girl and saw the blood relatives of the nobles who were fighting bloodily, it would only make them even more panic. The Duke of Jinhu City would never let the panic spread, and Kadiya told herself that the same was true for the Duke's daughter.

Don't be afraid.

She walked quickly through the corridor, as if she was always forcing herself to use it. She couldn't run. If she ran, I would definitely run away and hide in the cellar below the castle.

She held back the tears of smoke, sulfur and fear, raised her head and walked past the narrow windows with dazzling flames. The flames were imprinted on her light green skirt. The yellow cloak with the mark of the rolling waterfall of the Pulin family was tightly pressed against her body like a hug, and her long hem was dragged to the ground.

Then the demon dragon roared again, and it jumped down and jumped off the city wall. Kadiya turned her head and saw the tentacle-like tail that was poked out of the abyss twisted and disappeared at the edge of the city wall, leaving only the wall with almost half melted and yellow and red flames burning everywhere.

It left? Kadiya was stunned. She turned her head to look at the demon dragon. She stood there from the moment she turned her head to look at the demon dragon.

"Miss, it's gone." The female guard said with relief.

"I know." Kadiya replied in a slightly trembling voice. While no one noticed her, she quickly reached out and wiped the tears that had already flowed out of her eyes without control. "I, let's go." She sucked her nose and continued to walk forward quickly.

...

Duke Udolf rushed over the side of the speeding demon dragon on a horse. The one-eyed like molten gold didn't even look at him, but his vest was soaked in cold sweat. The Duke of Golden Waterfall breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at his burning house castle with a serious expression. The walls were like melted wax blocks, and the horse he was riding was unwilling to approach until the angry duke cut its tail with his sword.

Before he passed through the city gate, the melted rock dripped on his cloak and the shoulder armor carved into a rolling waterfall, and on the butt of the horse. The horse roared and raised its hooves. The Duke of Udolf almost screamed in shock. Because there was lava dripping above his head, he turned over and jumped off his horse, rolled a few times, and hit the inner wall of the city wall, and his cloak was also ignited.

Duke Udolf quickly pulled off his cloak, then got up and rushed towards the inner courtyard. Fortunately, the melted city wall was only on the outside, and there was no dripping lava inside. While running, the duke pulled out the slender fish-cutting knife at his waist and quickly separated the shoulder armor with the melting rock standing on it.

The lava burned the Duke's shoulders through the armor. He gritted his teeth and sweat oozed out of his forehead. Then, when he was about to rush into the inner court, the lung disease broke out, the sulfur and smoke choked him so hard that he couldn't breathe. He held the wall and almost couldn't stand steadily.

Damn, Damn, Damn! The Duke roared in his heart, and if it were in the past, he would roar directly. The Duke had a bad reputation when he was young. He was always irritable and unstable, so many people were unhappy to see him become the Duke. However, the Duke had already learned to suppress his anger. He wiped the blood foam coughed from the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, then raised his head, and continued to walk towards the inner courtyard with a gloomy expression.

When he had just walked out of the shadow under the city wall, he reached out to hold the hilt of the sword "cutting the throat" and then raised his back. There were still people in the inner courtyard, and the Duke noticed that he looked at the people coldly.

There were many horse corpses lying in the inner courtyard. He frowned slightly, and the smell of blood made him feel quite uncomfortable. Then the guards of the servants who were tired of hudding outside the stable, hiding under the steps, or behind the gates in the city, all discovered him.

"Duke Duke!"

"It's the Duke!"

"The Duke is back!"

The servants ran out screaming and shouted in ecstasy: "It was the Duke who drove away the evil dragon! It was the Duke who drove away the evil dragon!"

These foolish dukes, Udolf, cursed in his heart, but he didn't say it. If these guys think that I drove away the dragon, just think so! As long as they can move immediately.

The Duke raised his hand calmly as if he had been, and swept the courtyard a little: "Leave two people to clean up, and the others will go to put out the fire immediately." After the Duke finished speaking, he continued to walk towards the inner castle, while the guards and servants immediately became busy.

He walked into the inner castle, looked coldly at the servants and guards who looked at him in surprise, and then took a step forward. "Call Pryan and Ms. Etherland to see me." He said in a cold tone, and then continued to move forward. The servants who were originally squatting or curled up stood up and followed him blankly. He frowned and turned his head, "Didn't you hear me?"

Then the servants were shocked and quickly ran. Duke Udolf smelled a stinking smell everywhere, but instead of delving into the question, he called a maid who ran away in a hurry: "Where is Kadiya?"

The maid was stunned for a moment, then shook her head blankly. The duke waved her hand angrily and asked her to leave, so he continued to walk quickly towards the circular hall.

A servant followed him all the time, and he didn't care. He just walked and took off the armor from his hand and handed it to him, asking him to hold it. When the Duke of Udolf approached the inner castle, Plain finally came over.

His eyes were dirty, but he himself was even dirty, full of gray, and the Duke frowned slightly.

"Duke! It's great to see you have nothing to do!" Plain quickly knelt on the side of the Duke, and the Duke didn't stop for a moment and continued to walk forward.

Plain also stood up himself, but he immediately noticed the Duke's shoulder and immediately called the servant behind him to find the doctor.

"Where has Kadiya been?" The duke frowned and took off his second hand armor, handed it to the servant who was following him, then waved his hand and asked him to leave.

"Miss Kadiya is pacifying the relatives of the nobles in the Round Hall." Duke Plain replied.

The Duke of Udolf was stunned. He looked at Plain suspiciously, then put down the hand that had just waved the servant away and continued to walk forward. "Where has that 'Liehua' gone?" Duke of Udolf asked in a deep voice.

"She is taking mercenaries to rescue the artillery crossbows on the city wall." Plain followed closely behind the duke and replied, "Although the demon dragon destroyed most of the artillery crossbows, there seemed to be a few left, so the Liehua led the craftsman to rush up the city wall."

Duke Udolf nodded, no comment on this.

However, as they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of the circular hall. The two guards looked at Duke Udolf nervously. It was obvious that they had just returned to the guard post. The Duke was not in the mood to waste time with them here at this moment.

"Open the door." Duke Udolf said patiently, and the two guards rushed to push the gate of the inner castle open.

Immediately, the door was filled with nervous, uneasy, and fearful eyes. He didn't say anything. Plain followed him and walked into the circular hall together.

Kadiya was not sitting on the high seat. He saw her standing among the children who were sobbing in a low voice, followed by two tall female guards. Kadiya immediately saw Duke Udolf. She was stunned for a moment, then immediately lifted her skirt and ran towards the Duke.

"Father!" Kadiya rushed into the duke's arms like a brisk bird. Duke Udolf staggered back, but still held his daughter firmly. The corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, and then reached out to touch his daughter's soft hair.

"Duke." The nobles' wives and children and relatives also stood up, but the nobles' etiquette made them not come forward to interrupt their father and daughter. However, when they blocked them, someone could not help but raise their voices and asked, "Duke! Is my husband safe?!"

"Sir Duke! So are my husband!"

"My sons! Are my sons okay?"

"Duke Duke!"

Duke Udolf raised his hand, and Kadiya consciously took two steps back. "The war is not over yet, ladies." Duke Udolf replied faintly, "I cannot guarantee something that still does not know the outcome."

After the Duke finished speaking, the ladies were obviously not satisfied with his answer, but after seeing the Duke's expression when he spoke, they did not dare to say anything, but dared to sob and pray uneasily. Duke Udolf's harsh reputation is well known, and the local nobles in Jin Falls City are even more well aware of.

Duke Udolf looked at Hemi and rubbed her head. He was very pleased, because he came to the Roundhouse this time to comfort the ladies and children who might have been panicked as much as possible, and he was sure that he could not do the job well. But Kadiya had actually completed the job, and it was definitely better than the "hard Duke".

"You've done a good job, Kadiya." The Duke said softly.

But Kadiya looked at him worriedly: "Father, your shoulders..."

This is when Plain also went up and said, "Sir Duke, the doctor has been waiting outside the circular hall, is it..."

"Don't worry," Duke Udolf waved his hand irritably, asking Plain to go down, and then he looked at his daughter, "I'm fine, Kadiya."

As he said that, he raised his hand and held the "cut throat" on his waist, untied the skin buckle with the scabbard, and handed the cut throat to Kadiya. "This is the Duke's sword, Kadiya," Kadiya took the sword in a daze, but the sword was heavier than she imagined, and her hands that had received the sword sank a lot, "Now I want you to sit in the circle hall for the Duke."

After saving the "throat cut", Kadiya raised her head, looked at the duke nervously and asked, "Father, where are you going?"

"Did I say it? The war is not over yet." Udolf stroked his daughter's hair again, "It is the responsibility of the man and the duke to end the war."

After saying that, Duke Udolf turned around and walked out of the door of the circular hall.

Until the gate of the circular hall was closed, Kadiya was watching him leave. As soon as the gate closed, the duke relaxed tightly. Plain, who was beside him, quickly supported the duke, and sweated down from the duke's forehead: "Send me to the circular hall immediately. Find someone to let Liehua come to see me."

"Yes, sir!"

...

The figure like a hill in the distance and the yellow flames soaring into the sky made Mdolph frown. He straightened his back and sat on the back of a tall black horse, wearing chain armor symbolizing the color of Edtown and a yellow cloak symbolizing the Golden Waterfalls.

"Bah! The monster's duel!" Luen commented after spitting. He was wearing a leather jacket similar to his father, Master Badong, and only had no protective effect and a sail of Langshi Town. He held a steel fork in his hand and a heavy iron axe on his back. At this moment, the blade of the iron axe had almost been rolled up, and there were three giant monsters hanging on both sides of the tall war horse he was riding under him. Even Mdolph had to admit that Luen was indeed a character.

His younger brother "Iron Sail" Kadong was much worse. He was almost eaten by a giant monster and fell off the horse's back. If his brother had not been rescued by several long-boat bosses, he might have been trampled to death by the giant monster. But he might have been dead. Mdolph thought that he was ashamed to death, and the sea people never were afraid of it. They would loudly laugh at Kadong's experience today when they went out to fish in the future. He would become a laughing stock - or a laughing stock.

Mdolph did not come forward to comfort him. He knew that Kadon had a gloomy personality and that he had had a relationship with him. If he went to comfort him, he would only be regarded as humiliation. Mdolph sighed and he had to pay attention to his relationship with them, which was what the Duke had always asked him to do.

"His Excellency Barov," Duke Mdolph asked modestly to the bald mercenary riding beside him, "What should we do next in your opinion?"

"The Hero of Nalun Town" did not answer immediately, but looked at the two monsters roaring and fighting in the ruins with a heavy expression. The King of Monsters was much bigger than the Demon Dragon, but even so, looking at this distance, you can find that the scorching lava was flowing down its body, and the yellow flames burned the moss, vines, and saplings growing on his body, and also disintegrated his thick mud shell. In any case, even though the King of Monsters was larger, the Demon Dragon was still a longer existence than it, and the two were fundamentally different.

"You can only wait." Barowu thought for a long time and could only sigh.

"Ha!" After hearing his words, Ruon immediately laughed, "Isn't this equivalent to not saying it!"

Then he continued, "No matter which of them wins, we must face one of them! It is impossible to pray that the Lord of the furnace will be merciful and let the two monsters die together, right?"

"Young Master Ruen's words are reasonable." Mdolph nodded, then looked at Barovuff, "So, what should we do after they decide the winner?"

Barolwufu's eyes never left the monsters fighting in the distance, and his ears were always listening to their roar. Then he said, "We have no chance of winning no matter what one of them takes. There are so many people who can't deal with them, they can only rely on the equipment to defend the city."

"There are cities guarding equipment on the city wall!" Luen said loudly, "Master Mdolph! As long as you give me the order, I will take someone to carry the pile of wood over!"

"It's too late." Barolwufu shook his head, "I think they won't give us too much time."

"What do you think you should do?" Kadong, who had been gloomy, asked loudly.

"Go to the inner castle." Barolwufu said with a serious expression, "There are still artillery crossbows there, which are built by the chief craftsman of the Stone Fortress, which is our last hope. If the demon dragon wins, we will continue to use the saint to lead it to the inner castle, and it will definitely be injured by that time; if the monster king wins, we will need to go out."

As he said that, he smiled and white teeth at the other nobles, which made the other nobles take their heads away in a very uneasy manner.

After hearing Barovu's words, Mdolph smiled and nodded. As his father said, the mercenary was very interesting, and his idea actually came with the Duke. Pavre came to tell him the Duke's instructions, and the Duke asked the mercenary to lure the demon dragon to fight with the monsters. The next instructions coincided with Barovu's plan.

Mdolph smiled and nodded at Barovuff: "Then do what Lord Barovuff said!"

My father was right, and Mdolph thought to himself that this man might become an important role in consolidating his position.
Chapter completed!
