Amy shrugged with an innocent expression, and said, "Master Short Beard, you said that I can't be distracted during magic practice."
"I …" Crassus looked at the innocent expression on Amy's little face. She was so adorable, and he really couldn't do anything about it. Besides, he really had been distracted just then.
That damned Alex. I'm going to make him compensate me with a jug of good wine next time I see him! Crassus thought to himself with a vexed expression.
"Alex! I, Conti Nicholas, will definitely become a dragon-slaying warrior like you!!! " An excited and fanatical voice sounded from below the city wall. A fully-armored donkey-riding knight looked up at Meg with excitement on his face.
Everyone burst into laughter at the sight of this strange combination. No matter how they looked at it, this donkey-riding knight didn't look like someone who could slay a dragon.
Meg was just about to leave, and he looked down with a hint of surprise. Conti's smile was still as bright as ever, and didn't change in the slightest despite the laughter around him.
"Nice mount, Conti Nicholas. I'll remember that. I hope that when I hear your name again in the future, I'll have those words in front of it." Meg looked at Conti with a smile before taking a glance at Firis. The griffin spread its wings, and disappeared into the distance.
Everyone instantly fell silent. They were all staring at Conti with incredulity. That knight riding a black donkey-riding donkey with a sapphire longsword hanging from his waist had received Alex's approval. Could it be that this guy had some other powerful abilities?
"Definitely!"
Conti looked in the direction that the griffin had disappeared, and his smile became even more confident. He then turned around and rode away on his donkey.
After Alex left, the onlookers also gradually dispersed.
However, Alex's arrival in Chaos City and his public announcement were clearly going to be a hot topic for the residents of Chaos City for some time.
Firis withdrew her gaze, and looked at the wary soldiers who had gathered around her. She calmly said, "I want to seek protection from Chaos City."
"Please come with me to the city lord's castle." A soldier who appeared to be a captain made his way over to Firis.
Phyllis nodded and followed the captain down the city wall towards the city lord's mansion.
Don't worry, Young Mistress. I'll be sure to live a good life in Chaos City and take good care of the young mistress. I'll wait for you to come and find us, Firis thought to herself.
…
Just as Chaos City was still reeling from the surprise of Alex's arrival, Meg, who had changed back into his normal clothes, was riding his bicycle along a mountain path. His two Red-top Tricolor Ducks were hanging off the handlebars of his bicycle, and their eyes were rolling up like two rainbows.
Meg's performance just now wasn't a sudden whim. He really did want to do something to support Gloria and at the same time relieve some of the pressure she was facing.
His declaration, coupled with the official announcement of Chaos City, should be able to intimidate those mercenary squads to some extent, and create a safe environment for all of the wandering elves who sought refuge in Chaos City.
Chaos City had opened a door for all of the wandering elves, and at the same time, it had thrown out an extremely attractive bait for those mercenary squads. If he and Chaos City didn't do something, all of the wandering elves scattered across the continent would most likely suffer even more.
"It's time to switch the roles of the predator and the prey in this hunting game." Meg murmured to himself. He looked at the Red-top Tricolor Ducks hanging off the handlebars of his bicycle, and his mood immediately improved. He said internally, "System, I've captured two Red-top Tricolor Ducks; I've completed the mission, right?"
"Congratulations, you've successfully captured two Red-top Tricolor Ducks within the time limit. You've completed the mission and received a Quanjude Peking Duck recipe, as well as all of the necessary cooking utensils." The system's voice sounded.
Meg looked at the shiny golden experience bag that had appeared in his mind, and a vibrant smile appeared on his face.
Speaking of Peking Duck, it really was one of Meg's favorite dishes.
The Bianyi Square roast duck and the Quanjude roast duck had different flavors, but Meg still preferred the Quanjude roast duck.
The Bianyi Square was the first roast duck restaurant in Beijing, and it had a history of over 600 years. The so-called Bianyi Square roast duck was a restaurant that didn't have an open flame, so the roast duck couldn't be moved in the middle of the cooking process. The roast duck made by a good chef had a crispy outer skin, a plump inner layer, and a juicy inner layer.
In contrast, the Quanjude roast duck was roasted by hanging the duck over an open flame, thereby earning it its name. It was a roast duck in the truest sense of the word, and it had successfully made Peking Duck a famous dish.
As for Da Dong and the Sea Sky Pavilion … Those were roast duck restaurants that had become quite popular in recent years, but Meg only tried them once in a while. His favorite dish was still the Quanjude Restaurant's traditional roast duck.
However, a few years ago, when Quanjude changed to electric roast duck, the soulless duck disappointed Meg greatly. Since then, he rarely went to Quanjude Restaurant.
The main reason why Meg was so tempted was that the system had promised that the roast duck recipe would be a traditional roast duck recipe, and not an electric roast duck recipe. Just thinking about how he could make the perfect Quanjude roast duck with his own hands made Meg excited.
Meg rode his bicycle back to the city gate in a low-key manner. When he heard the passersby discussing the arrival of Alex, he couldn't help but smile.
If these people knew that he was Alex, they would probably break down.
"Dragon!"
At this moment, someone at the city gate suddenly exclaimed.
Meg looked up and saw a somewhat familiar Frost Dragon flying over from afar. It landed and transformed into a human form, and the cold aura it exuded made the passersby avoid it.
It's her. Meg was slightly surprised to see Elizabeth in her crystalline dress. This wasn't the first time that he had been struck by fear in the face of a giant dragon. Furthermore, this young woman would occasionally come to the restaurant to dine, and she seemed to be very interested in Mia. She had left a deep impression on him.
Elizabeth also took a glance at Meg, but didn't greet him. Instead, she walked right past him.
However, just as she reached the city gate, her ears twitched, and she suddenly stopped in her tracks. She turned her cold gaze to a portly middle-aged man, and asked in a cold voice, "Did you just say that Alex came to Chaos City?"
The middle-aged man was just an ordinary businessman, and he was instantly plunged into an icy abyss by Elizabeth's glare. Even his voice was trembling as he replied, "He … He just came, but he already left …"
"Where did he go?" Elizabeth immediately clenched her fists. Her voice became even colder, and frost had already appeared beneath her feet.
"I … I don't know either …" The merchant wanted to cry but had no tears. What kind of world was this? He was just bragging to his friends. Why was he being asked about Alex's whereabouts? He was just a cucumber seller. What could he know?
Elizabeth withdrew her gaze, and a white snowflake appeared beneath her feet, and she disappeared on the spot.
