"Dragon? This is the voice of a dragon, the voice of the legendary dragon that ruled the world in the First Age!" "Bloodwind" said in surprise.
He looked in the direction of the sound with a slight panic in his eyes, and with his right hand removed the "Grey Sword" from Melinal's neck, and smashed it heavily to the ground.
Inadvertently, a crack was made on a rare clean tile that was only stained with fine dust.
"Yes, it's a dragon. The Socra Committee sent three dragon eggs, perhaps the 'seeds' left by a female dragon that was once imprisoned and is now dead. Some time ago, Dylan poured darkness into the dragon eggs. We used the magic source power to do some finishing work. We were lucky enough and hoped that the goddess would take care of us. The dragon was successfully hatched. Unfortunately, the final destination of this dragon is under the dome of the Socra Committee. , it has to fulfill a greater mission than we can comprehend." Melinaer said with a proud smile.
Now the situation has completely reversed. She has the advantage, and the headache has become "Blood Wind".
It really confirms the ancient proverb of the Flame Empire: offense and defense will change the objects they support in an instant. Only by upholding justice and bravery and defeating evil and cowardice can we freely control the victory of the battle.
"You are playing with fire, Melinare. You, including you, hope that the church never told our other two families about this. We never knew that you raised a... dragon, so evil, violent and dangerous. You cannot control the creatures. Indeed, we are aware of and will not prevent your contact with the Socratic Council, but only if they betray the empire and cannot harm us."
"Xue Feng" advised anxiously, the pride, ridicule and overriding arrogance completely gone from his face.
Instead, there was fear, the fear that huge, strong, mysterious, twisted, and even ghostly legendary creatures brought into his soul.
"Meet Thayer, it is very cute and will not harm others. Indeed, any books on religion, occultism, biology and history will always describe dragons as a symbol of evil. But in fact, They are more upright than ugly humans. You should have heard the story about the dragon in the Fire Empire in the middle of the Third Era." Melinaer pointedly said, tilting her head to look In the shadow of the corner.
"Crete, if I remember correctly, the half-dragon's name is this. I don't admit that he is a dragon. As we all know, dragons are usually not willing to show themselves in human form. They will think that it is lowering their status." , a sign of being in a humble company. Especially half-dragons, monsters like humans and dragons, are even more despised by people." "Xuefeng" rubbed his forehead that felt inexplicable tingling with his free left hand, and used He answered with the knowledge he read in his memory.
"Yes, it's the story of Kraite. He is indeed a half-dragon, but according to historical data from the east, at least when the little emperor of the Fire Empire called 'The Sorrower' summoned the dragons, he was Half a century after the ritual known as the Dragon Celebration, humans have shown unprecedented tolerance towards dragons, especially half-dragon creatures."
"From a psychological point of view, human beings will not hate a creature that they have never seen before, but is called evil, cruel and worthy of elimination every day. Everyone will have rebellious emotions in their hearts, so in that era, Kelite successfully escaped from the environment in which the dragons were imprisoned. With the help of "Long Qing", he completely awakened, awakened some of the dragons' power, and escaped from the Fire Empire. After a long and lonely flight, he was under the influence of the Aventelai Empire. 'Protect'."
As he spoke, the clear and childish "dragon roar" came out again. This time it was a little more timid and well-behaved than before. "Xue Feng" knew that the "dragon" that briefly hid in the darkness must have brought Meili to her. Na'er regarded her as a mother-like figure and could not take action directly.
The power of the dragons cannot be measured by the "order" commonly used in the field of magic. They are born as "Hercules", "Kings of Wisdom", and even excellent "manipulators of magic power".
They can masterfully manipulate the power of fire, bathe in lava, and even sneeze slightly, with enough power to destroy a huge howitzer in the Empire, and even tanks and combat aircraft.
That kind of power is difficult to understand, but when you truly understand it, you will definitely be on the eve of your body falling apart, or turning into a pool of lifeless charcoal.
Therefore, while "Blood Wind" ensures that the magic source power surges towards the "Sword of Ashes", it intends to understand as much as possible the motivations of the Church of Hope, at least the current combat capability of this dragon.
"Crete..." "Bloodwind" followed Melinaer's story and said:
"I remember that there were sporadic stories about him in the history book, "The Autumn Days of Ewentre". He worked for Ewentre for more than a year, mainly cooperating with the then Prime Minister of the Empire, Kyle. There was also the then Imperial Empress Lelita I, who jointly developed the early Fire of Punishment and studied how to combine humans and dragons. Before that, Kyle successfully assassinated the proud Leli who was once known as the 'Ice Bear' Kes II. It is said that it was precisely because the power of the dragon clan limited the magic power of the 'Ice Bear' that he was penetrated by a long sword used in court etiquette through his weak throat."
"Your history is not bad, but do you know what happened later?" Melinaer showed a smile that said "I must know better than you", took two steps back, and met the "grey" and "Blood Wind", which "exhausts" the two auras no less than "sorrow", distanced itself and continued:
"You must have no way of knowing, because this is unofficial history."
"Sometimes unofficial history is the truth, just like the book "Surprise! The 25th Emperor Yin Fan did this and ruined the empire!" Although it is exaggerated and even the title is partisan, it does not prevent the book from spreading. It’s true.” “Blood Wind” echoed.
"Yes, it seems that we are close friends on this matter." Melinaer nodded and said:
"Actually, Kelite belonged to the Yanhuo Empire. The 'Luo Family', which was in charge of the empire at that time and supported the 'Abandoned' Emperor to come to power, sent 'Luo Wu' and 'Yangu' disguised as trade ministers to go north to meet with Kyle and Lelita negotiates a deal for the Ureum ore order.”
"This order was worth a lot of money back then. The Yanhuo Empire received the equivalent of one month's fiscal revenue in imperial silver. The Aventelai Empire took advantage of this to launch the 'Desperate Raid' campaign, using the ore to develop the early 'God of Punishment' Fire bombarded Nabsk, causing more than 500,000 Krusted Empire troops to be buried in the sea of fire. If the Krusted Empire was not in an absolutely powerful period, [Order] Yin Fan 22 had an absolutely powerful If the torrent of steel wipes out Avant in one fell swoop, if he comes to the ice field, I'm afraid the world structure will go in another direction."
"It's a bit far away. Let's go back to the half-dragon Crete. After his memory was awakened by the Minister of Trade Luo Wu and Yan Gu, he actually raided Kyle's secret underground base for studying mysticism. They even used a certain A ritual or sacrifice summoned the Lord of the Dark Night's true form to come."
"Subsequently, Kyle, who fell into a nightmare, had his heart removed by the Lord of Darkness, ending the nightmare of the 'Eternal One'. In order to regain Krait from the Lord of Darkness and return him to his hometown of the Fire Empire, this Luo Wu, who is also an 'Immortal', also sacrificed himself, in exchange for the complete awakening of the power of the Kelite dragon clan."
"The paradox is that Kelite could have used the powerful dragon power and rich magic power to fight for the Fire Empire. No matter what, he could still get some benefits as much as possible and get the guidance of the Creator to become a demigod, or even to become a demigod. God.”
"But that unofficial history narrative ended abruptly here. A few years ago, I read a lot of history books about the Fire Empire, and even taught myself some obscure words called the 'Fire Empire Mandarin'. I couldn't find any description of Kraite in the incomprehensible square hieroglyphics. Maybe he returned to his oriental name after entering the Fire Empire, or maybe he fell into a deep sleep, waiting for someone guided by fate to wake him up. Find the end , I only got some ambiguous text, which generally means that Kraite may be related to the Chooser. Therefore, in the past two years, we have only begun to focus on obtaining and interpreting the fragmentary pages of the Chooser's diary. Oh, yes Already..."
Melinaer turned around, looked at a dark area in the shadow corner that almost absorbed all the surrounding light, and called out softly:
"Seye, little one, come here. Let your... uh, 'Bloodwind' brother take a good look at you. He really wants to 'get to know' you!"
"Woo - Wu - Chirp - Chirp -" The "dragon" in the shadow made a cheerful chirp that looked like a bird, but also resembled a high-pitched ship whistle.
For a time, "Xue Feng" had a strong feeling of missing his distant hometown.
"Is this...a dragon?" "Bloodwind" looked at it crawling out of the dark shadow with awe, fear, and worship of power like an observing god, exuding a strong feeling of "sadness" The breath of Thayer.
A dragon indeed.
This was the first thought that "Blood Wind" had after seeing Thayer's body.
With a length of more than three meters, it is not very large, and it is even slightly weaker than many alien Heartless people.
But Seye's round and plump obsidian skin, the black gem-like scales covering it, the pure red wings with membranes that resemble bats, and a pair of "antlers" hanging like a lizard's head, sprouted What comes out is the ancient mysterious power.
Looking at the very "cute" "Xue Feng" who walked slowly to Melina's side, made a childish chirping sound, put his head into Melina's arms, and snuggled next to her, I suddenly felt that I Being enveloped in a huge bright red light, it was falling into the endless abyss.
He seemed to be riding a runaway train, speeding through the desert wilderness covered with yellow sand. Amid the hysterical roars of the people around him, he was running towards a dark, bottomless cliff.
He could even faintly feel the green, sticky blood splashing around him, mixed with the rancid smell, which was eating away at his taste buds.
Shaking his head vigorously, holding the "Sword of Ashes" tightly with his right hand, and surging the demonic power belonging to the violent wind in his body as much as possible, "Blood Wind" woke up from the nightmare hallucination just now.
No longer choosing to hesitate, he whispered the incantation calling for the power of "ash" and "exhaustion". He raised the sword as hot as lava with both hands, reflecting the bright light of the sun and the surrounding fireflies flying like fireflies. The silver-white electric current that jumped and surrounded the sword body rushed forward toward the direction of "Dragon" and Melinaer, slashing away like a knight fighting a windmill.
