Holy Great Dragon, Starting from Gene Evolution - Chapter 40

Ye Chen was hiding in the Lord’s mansion.

Soon, through the conversation between the servants, he found the butler’s position.

Before killing him, Ye Chen had asked him the same question.

In the end, he found out that.

Most of what Lord Wheeler had said was the truth.

Only attacking the Elf forest had been his idea all along.

After hearing this news…

Ye Chen finally let out a sigh of relief.

Just now, when he heard that it was the Duke of the Imperial City who had appointed Lord Wheeler…

Ye Chen’s heart sank.

A Baron’s territory had almost broken through the Holy Land of the Elves.

If the Duke of the Imperial City really had his eyes on it, then it was not hard to imagine.

In the future, the Dark Shadow Elf race would definitely fall into endless chaos!

But now, it was still okay. Things were not going to turn into the worst.

Right now, the leader, the female Knight, and the butler who knew the location of the Holy Land had all been killed by Ye Chen.

Ye Chen had finally completed his mission.

Thinking about the beautiful Elven Queen, he was still waiting for him with worry.

Ye Chen planned to return to the Dark Shadow Forest immediately.

At the very least, he did not plan to leave the forest until he had devoured all the demonic beasts in the forest…

However, just as Ye Chen walked out of the Lord’s mansion…

Inside the mansion, in the bedroom where Lord Wheeler was on the third floor…

A burst of blazing flame light suddenly burst out.

Then, a human figure jumped out of the window of the Lord’s mansion and landed on the roof.

Ye Chen had a bad feeling and was about to run away.

That flame-like human figure had already locked onto his position!

A loud shout was heard, and that human figure jumped off the roof and chased after Ye Chen.

“Evil creature! You killed someone, and you still want to run away?”

That horrifying power was not weaker than the Elven Queen!

Ye Chen immediately knew that he had been tricked by that Lord Wheeler!

There was actually such a powerful warrior hiding in the Lord’s mansion!

It was useless to think too much about it. Ye Chen immediately activated his speed gene and ran crazily towards the city.

He would definitely not be able to beat him in a fight.

He would only have a chance to escape if he mixed in with the crowd!

The guards inside the Lord’s mansion all cried out when they saw that flaming figure.

“Messenger?”

“What happened? Did something happen?”

“Oh no! Lord! Go check on him!”

“But, he is with Jody…”

“Don’t worry about it! Go check it out!”

Soon after, Lord Wheeler and the female Knight Jody’s bodies were found.

The whole Lord’s mansion was in a mess…

…

At the same time…

Ye Chen was running away crazily.

The Gold Knight behind him was luckily a Fire Knight, so his speed was not that fast.

If it was a Wind Knight, then Ye Chen would have been cut into pieces by now!

However, even so…

His speed was still slightly faster than Ye Chen, who had fully opened his genes, so he followed closely behind.

Fortunately.

The Lord’s mansion was not far from the bustling city center.

Ye Chen soon rushed into the crowd, scaring the surrounding humans into fleeing in all directions.

“Ya! Big lizard!”

“Oh my god, a meter-long lizard! Its speed is so fast!”

“Quick, kill it! Kill it!”

There were a few strong men, and one of them was just an ordinary lizard.

Holding a stick, a blade, and a sword, he surrounded Ye Chen.

Ye Chen impatiently flashed through the crowd with a string of afterimages.

All of the humans who tried to stop him were cut into two halves by him!

Looking at the pieces of flesh flying everywhere, the fear in the crowd completely exploded.

Seeing this, the Fire Knight behind him was even more furious.

He activated his flame battle Qi, and his speed increased by another notch!

Seeing this, Ye Chen directly rushed into the inn where the crowd was taking shelter.

Inside the inconspicuous inn, people immediately cried out in surprise.

The Fire Knight’s face lit up.

“Hahaha! Animals are animals! How dare they run into a house with no road?”

Then, the Gold Fire Knight directly rushed into the inn, closing the only door at the entrance.

In this world, there was no such thing as a fire tunnel.

Once this door was closed, only the windows in the inn could escape.

Therefore, the moment the Fire Knight closed the door, he shouted, “Close all the windows! Residents, close the doors!”

The panicked crowd of refugees and the tenants in the hotel subconsciously followed his orders.

The Fire Knight smiled viciously.

He commanded the city guards who rushed over and began to search every room in the hotel.

Soon, the Fire Knight knocked on the door in the corner.

‘Human-shaped’ Ye Chen opened the door with a trembling voice.

‘Scared’ looking at him, he said with a trembling voice, “Sir Knight, I… I have always listened to you, I have never opened the door…”

The Fire Knight frowned deeply.

This was the last room. Where was that huge lizard hiding?

He did not give up and led his people around Ye Chen’s room, but they did not find anything.

After checking Ye Chen’s ‘identity card’, he told him to keep the door closed and shout if there was anything.

Ye Chen naturally nodded and agreed.

He sent the Fire Knight and a few guards out of the room…

In case someone was watching him in the dark.

Ye Chen still pretended to be careful, hiding at the foot of the bed, ‘looking scared’.

It was not until the noise in the inn lasted for half an hour.

Only then did that Fire Knight take the dozens of city guards and start to lock down the Eagle Nest City.

However, he also knew that.

That extremely fast lizard had probably already escaped from the Eagle Nest City while they were searching for it.

Moreover, as a messenger, it was impossible for him to interfere too much in Eagle Nest territory’s internal affairs.

At this time, since the murderer of the leader was not caught, he could not be bothered with this matter.

After all, he was just a small Baron.

In the entire Oracle Empire, there were hundreds of empty Barons waiting for a replacement territory…

…

Just like that, Ye Chen stayed in his room for five to six days.

Even if the inn owner came knocking on his door these days, he would only say that he was scared and did not need to worry about him.

Since that was the case…

The inn owner would naturally not meddle in other people’s business.

Until today.

The entire Eagle Nest City had completely calmed down.

Only then did Ye Chen turn back into his human form and leave the room.

However, he was still cautious and did not leave the city right away.

Who knew if the city gate was now heavily guarded?

Although his human form could fool anyone.

He still did not want to cause unnecessary trouble.

Therefore, Ye Chen came to the biggest tavern in Eagle Nest City.

He wanted to see if there was a chance for him to leave with someone.

However, he had just entered the tavern and asked for a glass of liquor.

Suddenly, he felt an agile figure sneaking up behind him.

Smelling that familiar body scent, Ye Chen’s heart skipped a beat. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, but he did not move.

It was not until his shoulder was patted twice by a small hand.

It was the rookie mercenary, Lina. That lively and sweet voice came from behind him.

“Hey, isn’t this the great Mage? What a coincidence!”
