“Exactly!” Luo Lin waved his fist and smiled, “Dragon City is now facing danger from both the North and the West, so we need to quickly rebuild our strength. I plan to assign every soldier that is above rank 7 to attack the Soul Devourer City, kill Ba Lin, and steal his sword. That way, I can command the one thousand Unsullied soldiers and turn them into Dragon City’s army, which would follow only Dragon City’s orders!”
Frost narrowed her eyes and said, “Mister, is obtaining the Unsullied really that pressing of a matter?”
Luo Lin nodded and said, “Our battle with the Dark Dwarves had resulted in many losses. The three great cities can’t assign any more elite battle students to join the ranks of Dragon City. The recruitment posters that we’ve posted in each city have been ripped within minutes of being put up. There’s no other way, we can only choose the path where we will gain more soldiers, and what better way is there than to obtain the Unsullied? Plus the ice wolves are extremely sturdy and they run extremely fast, which gives them a great impact force. They’re the best way to deal with the Dark Dwarves.”
“But…… If we assign so many soldiers to Soul Devourer City, we’ll definitely receive many losses. Instead of that….”
Frost’s clear eyes brought out her battle intent as she said, “How about you just let me go? I can sneak into Soul Devourer City without a sound, kill Ba Lin, steal his sword, and bring the Unsullied army to Dragon City. Mister just needs to send down the rope…”
“You… can you really do it?”
“May master please have trust in me!” Frost knelt to the ground.
Luo Lin grunted and suddenly looked towards me as he said, “Then I’ll leave this to you, Frost. You are our Dragon City’s Dragon Knight Lieutenant. You are also my most trusted general. Why don’t you bring your student along, maybe that little brat can help with something?”
“Huh?” Panic flashed through Frost’s eyes and she said, “Mister, it can’t be done. He… his experience is too little. Soul Devourer City’s King Ba Lin is extremely cruel. If something goes wrong…”
I stood up and softly said, “Frost, don’t say anything more. I’ll go with you. I don’t want you to go to that sort of a place by yourself anyway!”
Frost made a fist and lowered her voice as she said, “Idiot, you’ll die!”
I picked up my sword and said, “I won’t. Besides, even if I die, it should be enough in exchange for your chance to live…”
“You…”
Frost gave a deep sigh, then smiled and said, “Alright. Pack up your things and set off with me!”
“I’m ready whenever you are…”
“Then…” Frost looked up at the sky. A snowflake fell onto her cheek and she said, “Then let’s leave now, while the sun isn’t up yet. We’ll go to Soul Devourer City and take the power to command the Unsullied!”
“Alright!”
……
“Ding!”
