Chapter 874 Hiding Dragons Dive In Deep Water, Flying Dragons Soar The Skies
This was not a particrly big room.
It took up around a hundred square meters. As to why it’s notrger, is because it was Zenith Harol’s
room.
As themander of the three hundred thousand men-strong Dragon Cavalry, with immense influence
and power, he ruled over an area of over three million square kilometers in the Northern Territories, and
any intruders are not weed.
With such achievements, it could not be fathomed why he would stay in such a small room. In
retrospect, a hundred square meters was really small.
“Chief Guard Hughes, please rest for a while. Themander will be with you shortly.”
Achilles White arranged Jack Hughes’ luggage and left the room, “I will be standing guard outside the
room. Should you require anything, Chief Guard, just call for me and I will be right with you.”
The door to the room was then closed.
Only then, Jack got up and sat on the bed.
As he was unable to sleep, he wandered around the room to check things out.
There were no luxurious decorations, the decorations that were there even started to look outdated.
Even the bed frame was an old wooden model.
No excess decorations, everything looked simple, but the whole room had a serious army atmosphere
to it, from the weapons hanging on the walls, to the armor and saddles piled up in the corners.
The only thing in the center of the room was an altar, holding offerings for Dragon Silver Spear. The
polearm emitted a majestic aura, when Jack took a peek at it, he felt a scent of blooding from it.
In front of the polearm was an incense burner, currently holding three incenses, with smoke stilling
out from them.
“If people were told that the God of War in Northern Territory lived in this tiny room, I doubt that anyone
will believe it.”
Jack rubbed his nose, chuckled and pulled out his Tao Te Ching. He spent a long time reading it
meticulously.
“Creek…”
The door was pushed open, and with it came a touch of coldness from the outside.

“I’m surprised that you dealt with everything so quickly.”
Jack said while smiling.
“Aye, the wounded girl is fine. I asked a doctor from my army to look after her.”
Zenith took off his python skin coat, removed all the snow on his body, and hung the coat on a coat
hanger. Then, he walked to the firece, grabbed a wine pot next to it, and poured some wine onto the
fire.
The fire instantly started burning brighter.
Jack’s face was stained in red by the fire, yet he appeared to be relieved.
He was very concerned about that flight attendant.
Zenith lifted the pot of wine and took a gulp, then he gave Jack and said, “Drink this, it helps with the
cold.”
“I’ll pass, the room is plenty warm.”
Jack shook his hands and rejected his offer.
Zenith sat beside the firece, warmed his hands in front of the fire, not saying anything.
Jack also sat next to the firece and looked at Zenith.
The light from the fire shined on Zenith’s face, which was showing a cold yet determined expression.
Even though his eyebrows were stationery, they still present a wild majestic look that was intimidating
and hard to look at for long.
Outsiders might find it hard to believe, that a legendary war hero in an army, a man whose legacy was
basically god-like, lived such a simple life.
The room was silent.
Only the firewood crackling when strong wine strengthened the fire could be heard asionally.
“Shit really hit the fan this time, huh?”
Zenith lifted his eyebrow and asked Jack, breaking the silence in the room temporarily.
“Yeah.”
Jack said in a worried tone, “Thebat-capable people around me are all injured. If I kept staying in
my home, I won’t be the only one in danger, they might be involved in this, too.”
“Is that why you decided toe and “involve” me in this?”
Zenith joked whileughing.
Zenith, as someone whose gaze could probably send a man running while pissing his pants, that gaze
returned to normal when he made that joke.
How could this man control his emotions so well?!
Jack swallowed his saliva in awe. People who had held power for a long time tend to start emitting
intimidating auras from their bodies.
Let alone Zenith.
To suppress that aura already took a lot of self-control.
Meanwhile, Zenith here suppressed his aurapletely in a sh while speaking. It was absolutely
incredible.
Jack shrugged, “Sadly, you are my senior. Moreover, I am the Chief Guard in your Dragon Cavalry.
With this position, it’s only normal that I go and fulfill my duty in the army, right?”
“Hahaha…You little brat, I can’t believe you’re so shameless!”
Zenith smiled. The smile on his cold hard face was a breath of fresh air for people, “Don’t worry, as
long as you’re in the Dragon Cavalry, your safety will be guaranteed. Three hundred thousand brothers
and I will protect you, no one can hurt you. Other than that, I’ll give you a surprise tomorrow morning.”
“What kind of surprise?”
Jack lifted his brows and asked.
Zenith shook his hands in return, changed the topic and said, “Now we shall discuss what will you do to
pass your time in the Dragon Cavalry.”
Jack did not press on with his question, but nodded along with Zenith.
He looked at his legs, and said deeply, “I wanna keep the fact that my legs are still working as a secret
until the my father’s birthday. It will be the ace up my sleeves.”
“Aye, I was thinking about your legs as well.”
Zenith rubbed his chin and said, “If you really wanna take on the duties of a Chief Guard, your position
within the army will be very high, and will definitely draw unwanted attention to yourself. If you really
wanna keep that ace, you’ll have to be wheelchair-bound until your father’s birthday. Also, you’ll be
unable to take on any missions during the entire period.”
“What about the other n?”
“That would be me not letting out any news of you, so that no one will know that you’re taking on the
duties of Chief Guard.”
Zenith smiles, thought for a second and said, “If you really wanna understand the ins-and-outs of the
Dragon Cavalry, and still wanna be deployed in operations alongside the army in the meantime, I’d say
your best bet would be hiding yourself in the army. Like hiding a dragon in deep water, your safety can
be ensured, and you get to go on missions.”
“A dragon hiding in deep water?”
“Aye!”
Zenith nodded, “As a Chief Guard, you’ll have a lot of restraints on what you can do. However, as a
mere trooper, the Cavalry and I can still ensure your safety, you also get to use your legs to move
around and do anything. In the three hundred thousand strong Dragon Cavalry, no one’s gonna notice
a particr trooper all the time.”
“I’ll choose the second n.”
Jack nodded, ced his right hand on his right leg, smiled and said in a bright tone, “My legs had been
out of action for way too long, I’ve wanted to stand up for ages now. By joining the Dragon Cavalry, I
also hope to train myself and increase my strength, get some experience on the way, too.”
Zenith nodded in agreement, stood up and said, “That’s good, A dragon diving in deep water is better
than a dragon flying in the sky. You don’te around often, so as your senior, of course I hope that
you can improve yourself during your time with us.”
As he was saying that, he walked outside.
“Where are you going?” asked Jack.
Zenith waved his hands without looking back, “Sleep in my room tonight, I’ll go crash with our brothers.
You’ll be assigned to your post tomorrow, also…Be sure to watch tomorrow morning’s online news,
your surprise will be on there.”
