Chapter 114 Escape
"How about it, can you still hold on?"
In the dark forest, a man's voice broke the silence.
"I'm fine, cough."
Alarielle, who had her hands around Imric, barely opened her mouth to speak. After taking the unknown potion, she felt her body had improved a bit. However, under the Dragon Prince's fighting style, which did not take care of the lady behind him, she was It feels like you are riding on a flying horse on the road.
Hearing the weakness in Alarielle's tone, Imric temporarily stopped running. The tactic just now was quite successful. After burning a sorceress to death with the heroic gun, he relied on several forest areas in Eden Valley and The densely packed houses threw Druzi away, and then he relied on his dragon transformation to knock back Druzi Wushuang who was guarding the remote exit, and ran directly into the forest of Avalon.
"We need to find a place to rest. The blood stains on both of us will attract the cold lizards to follow us."
The so-called rest was just to take care of Alarielle. Imric could rely on the flames to evaporate the blood on his body, ensuring that there was no smell at all. However, at a glance, he saw the silk clothes on the person carrying him and his poor physical condition. It’s better to find a place to rest for a while before making plans.
After observing the surrounding environment, the two of them were on a secret path. Lilith's moonlight could not penetrate the dense forest, making it appear very dark. With his hearing, he could vaguely hear the gurgling sound of some streams.
After thinking for a moment, he decided not to go to the river. That would definitely be Druchi's key search area. As for the tracking of the Cold Lizard, Imric thought of a way, so he tried to speak,
"You probably don't mind making some sacrifices for this escape."
Although she didn't know what Imrik meant, Alarielle nodded in agreement.
After sensing the Queen's consent, the Dragon Prince did not hesitate and tore off the hem of her skirt with his hands. That was where the blood was the thickest, which should confuse the sense of smell of some cold lizards.
In order not to cause misunderstanding, Imric explained carefully, "We need something to confuse Druzi's search operation."
He tore a few pieces of his skirt and opened the way with his heroic spear. He didn't expect that our dragon prince would one day become a woodcutter of Charis.
After hanging the bloody silk cloth at different locations, it felt like it was about the same. It should be able to delay some time. I deliberately chose to break through the east gate, and then walked west around the Eden Valley. Those Druzi also needed Give some time to react.
Arriving in a naturally formed cave, the darkness did not affect the Dragon Prince's vision. His pupils had turned into vertical pupils at night and began to exude the majesty of the Dragon Lord.
There are no living things inside.
After sensing it for a moment, Imrik concluded that the cave was very deep and should be sufficient as a place for rest and hiding.
He began to untie the strips of cloth on his body, and placed Alarielle on a stone. He looked at her messy long golden hair and pale face. Running all the way made her clothes look abnormally wrinkled, and the torn skirt looked even more embarrassing. Unbearable, not at all the same as when they met before.
Unable to help but laugh, Alarielle caught the laughter.
"You seem a little happy, Prince Imrik." There was some doubt in his weak tone.
"Just thinking of something happy."
"Can you tell me what happy thing makes you laugh at a time like this?"
"Now that the Eternal Queen has become a prisoner of the Dragon Prince, I don't know how the Witch King will feel."
Mentioning Malekith, Alarili fell into silence for a while. The Valley of Eden had been turned into ruins, and as the ruler of Avalon, she was also taken away by Imrik.
There was silence in the cave for a moment, and Alarielle asked, "Your appearance is a bit strange. If you knew that Eden Valley would be attacked by Druchi and wanted to take all the credit for rescuing me, you must have brought a high-level dragon prince to support you." , but why are you alone."
Imric did not answer immediately. Alarielle pondered for a moment and then said hesitantly, "Unless you know that Druchi will attack Ulthuan and leave the high-ranking dragon prince to guard Caledor, and then you come to save me alone. ."
"It seems that you are not as much of a vase as I imagined, Your Majesty Alarielle." Imrik took the opportunity to sarcastically say that the last time the two met was during the celebration, and their relationship was extremely unharmonious.
Because of the disrespect for the Eternal Queen with her words, the chief maid Lila Ze already wanted to take out her spear and start a championship duel with her.
Use the Dragon Fire Sword to split a few pieces of wood picked up from the entrance of the cave, and then light them. The bright yellow fire illuminates the surrounding dark environment, and then continues, "After the Chaos Storm appeared, I felt that something was wrong. Your mother He was poisoned, and although the Druchi spy has been caught, I don’t think he is the real murderer.”
"Why do you say that?" The rise of the flames gave Alarielle some warmth in her body. She tried to lift her arms, but found that it was still a bit difficult, so she had no choice but to put them down.
Imrik poked the bonfire with a wooden stick, and sparks jumped out of it. He seemed to be able to see the old man's appearance in the flames, as well as Julian's face that had been transformed by magic countless times.
"My father died in Nagaris, but you should also know his strength. It is impossible for just a few Druchi assassins to kill him."
Alarielle, who was leaning on the stone, nodded. The former Dragon Prince had long held the title of the strongest warrior in Ulthuan, and together with Randy, he won numerous honors in the war against Druchi and Chaos.
No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to be killed by the Druzi assassin in a battle with the Shadow King, an old monster chosen by Loic and Lilith as a support.
Continuing to poke the bonfire with a wooden stick, sparks began to rise under Imric's actions, and his tone gradually became colder, "The Dragon Palace investigated all the old man's journey from the Lothern War Council to his death in battle. Only Phoenix The door is the only place where it can be tampered with, you know what I mean."
"Do you think there is a Druchi spy in the Phoenix Court who killed my mother and Prince Mikhail and has not been discovered yet?" Alarielle's experience in running the Avalon Palace allowed Alarielle to quickly understand the situation. It was speculated, and the actual situation is not bad at all.
Putting the wooden stick aside, Imric nodded and said, "That dirty Druzi will definitely be exposed in this war, and as the Eternal Queen, you cannot die, but Caledor cannot have any accidents either. , so I chose to save you alone. Although it is a bit stupid, it is necessary."
