"What? They actually want to attack the crack seal?!"
Elder Pei Dalong couldn't sit still when he heard the news, he stood up from the chair at once, his brows were furrowed, his gray beard was shaking, his face was full of shock.
"Relax, relax." Link pressed his hand: "The matter is not out of control, and it is not easy to break through the seal around the crack. Of course, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible. Do you have any ideas?"
Pei Dalong propped his hands on the table. After half a minute, he still felt horrified. All kinds of worries poured in and never stopped. Although he forced himself to be calm, these distracting thoughts still greatly affected his thoughts.
If it was five years ago, his mind would never be so easily shaken, but in recent years, there have been a lot of facts that happened in Longgu, and each time it was a shocking event, and each time, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
The whole world is getting stronger, but the power of Dragon Valley is constantly weakening. For the dragon clan, this is the worst era.
Up to now, he has been like a frightened bird, and this time there is another accident in the rift, and he is deeply afraid that the situation will develop to the point of being out of control again.
A few minutes later, he sighed and said to Link: "Duke, my mind is in a mess, and my suggestion may not be beneficial to the current situation. I only have one request, don't let Your Majesty know about it. She was seriously injured this time. , just when I need to rest in peace... hey~"
At this time, the elder of the dragon clan had a dejected look, a sluggish heart, and was full of twilight. Link could clearly feel the despair emanating from him.
Those who are still unable to change the status quo and see no hope after exhausting their efforts are often in this state of mind.
Link frowned, and was a little confused about Pei Dalong's state. He remembered that he was still very energetic when he met last time. Why has he changed so much now
However, the situation was urgent at this time, and he didn't have time to figure it out, and he couldn't count on the help of such an elder of the dragon clan. After thinking about it, he said, "In this case, please recommend me a specific partner."
Pei Dalong was silent for a while, and then said: "Felena, she is very young, full of vigor and courage, she is the leader of the younger generation of my family, and you are familiar with her. Duke, you can ask her for help. "
Link was even more surprised: "I remember that there were 10 elders who came this time, why don't you recommend other elders?"
Pei Dalong shook his head: "No, Duke, we are all old and have no drive. Let those young people do the fighting."
"That's it, that's fine." Link knew Felena, and since Pei Dalong insisted, he naturally had no objection: "Then I'll go."
"Wait." Pei Dalong shouted again.
"how?"
"Duke, many things have happened in the past few years. Many members of the high-ranking dragon clan have died in battle. Now the number is not many. Now the number of real dragons does not exceed one thousand... We can no longer bear big losses."
Speaking of this, Pei Dalong lowered his head and avoided Link's sight. He hoped that Link could take care of the dragons and reduce their damage. But since the devil wants to target the crack, it will definitely be a fierce war. Casualties, it needs the lives of the human race to fill.
If it was before, of course it would be no problem, but now, Field's strength is huge, completely overwhelming Dragon Valley, and the human race with Field is already a strong race, so what Pei Dalong said is a bit lacking in confidence.
Link heard Pei Dalong's meaning, and he smiled: "I will try my best to pay attention, elder."
After speaking, a white light lit up on him, and when he reappeared, he had already appeared at the door of Felena's residence, knocked on the door, and after a while, the door opened, and Felina appeared behind the door.
"Duke, what's the matter?" Felena was dressed in a military uniform, her whole body was covered with shining dark red dragon scale armor, and her hands turned into dragon claws. She panted lightly, her cheeks were flushed, Her forehead was covered with sweat. From the looks of it, she should have practiced martial arts in the room before.
This mental state and the Red Dragon Elder are completely two extremes.
Link then told about Dragon Valley. After hearing this, Felena also felt strange and asked back: "Duke, why did you ask for my advice on this matter? You should ask the elders?"
"It was Elder Pei Dalong's suggestion that I came to you." Link was also wondering, he was somewhat confused about what Pei Dalong was thinking.
Felena couldn't figure it out either, she shrugged her shoulders: "Then you don't have to ask me, you are the Duke of my family, what do you plan to do, just give the order."
From Feliena's point of view, since Link is already the Duke of the Dragon Clan, and the Queen is still seriously injured, it is said that Link is the actual leader of the Dragon Clan, so of course he has the final say.
Link couldn't help but smile wryly. His duke was actually just a title, but when he really said it at this time, it seemed to be true. Anyway, he and Felena couldn't explain it clearly for a while.
Unexpectedly, Feliena said seriously: "Duke, I actually know what's going on. Maybe some elders in Dragon Valley think you are an outsider, maybe they think you are just our ally, not a member of the Dragon Clan, but I think they You were all wrong, you once crossed the fog barrier independently, and you were recognized by the ancestors of the Dragon Clan, and you got the body of a giant dragon. Because of their prejudices and selfishness!"
When she spoke, her eyes were firm and clear, without any doubts. Obviously, she had already figured out the truth.
Link was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, it is actually true to say so, but he is still a bit of a duke of the dragon clan after all. Some dragon clan can figure it out, while others can't. Status, if he really regarded himself as the Duke of the Dragon Clan, there would definitely be a storm within the Dragon Clan.
Thinking of this, Link said solemnly: "Felena, you must know that if I really admit what you said, it will cause a split in Dragon Valley!"
"So what?"
Felena stepped aside, let Link enter the room, and said at the same time: "Both His Majesty and the elders value the traditions of the Dragon Clan too much. Although there is nothing wrong with this, it is not wrong. The Dragon Clan is constantly changing. Weakness, if we stick to the past and do not change, our family will even perish in Ferromen!"
In the past, their dragon clan had the power to scare the world, but now times have changed. Although the power of the dragon clan has not weakened, and has grown somewhat, the power of the surrounding races has increased even more. For example, the orcs, their Emperor Wu has terrifying power, Slaughtering a giant dragon is only a matter of one stroke. For example, Feld, such as demons, such as high elves, all have the power to surpass the dragons, and even the alien plane of Alagu. Once the planes merge, the status of the dragons will become lower.
It can be said that in the foreseeable future, the future of the dragon clan is bleak.
Dragon Clan must make a change!
There was a faint light in Felena's eyes, but at this time, the light became stronger and stronger, looking like two jumping flames, she looked at Link with burning eyes, and said in an excited voice, "Duke, in fact, there is no place in Dragon Valley. Many young dragons admire you very much, as long as your Feld is willing to accept us, we can leave immediately... "
"Okay! Stop! Needless to say, I understand." Link interrupted Ferrena's words. He didn't expect such a division to quietly appear in Dragon Valley, which was really unexpected.
After a pause, Link asked, "Do those dragon elders know?"
At this time, he thought of Elder Pei Dalong's attitude, and his heart suddenly moved. I am afraid that the elder should know, but he did not object or express support, but chose to remain silent.
Feliena shook her head: "I don't know yet, but it's okay even if I know. The power of the young dragon has surpassed those elders, and they are powerless to stop us."
"Then have you ever thought about the queen?" Link asked again.
"Of course." Feliena calmed down a little, and sighed: "Actually, it is because of His Majesty that we have never put this idea into practice, especially when you and Your Majesty broke up before... But now it's all right, We have thought about it, you are now the Duke of our family, and we are all free, we can choose to serve any dragon strongman, we can follow in your footsteps and become your followers. No one can stop this, Your Majesty There is nothing to say."
Become his follower? This is a way of talking about the past. Although it is still playing the sidelines, it has not completely torn the face anyway, and there is room for maneuver in the future.
So now there was one last question: Should he accept the allegiance of these young dragons
After thinking about it, Link asked, "Felena, how many people think the same as you?"
"Many, most of the young people think this way. There are about 300 people, all of whom are above level 8. The most powerful one is called Ionus. He has half-stepped into level 10. If you don't Unexpectedly, half a year later, he will be our new legendary dragon."
There are more than 300 dragon warriors above level 8. Unlike the human race, these dragon warriors have a huge potential for improvement. They are very likely to be promoted to legend, and then they will grow all the way until they reach level 16 or above.
After all, the dragon race is a legendary race. When the concentration of mana on the plane increases, the average strength of each race rises rapidly, and so is the dragon race.
But the problem is that the lifespan of dragons is extremely long, and their power increase speed is slower than other short-lived races. At the beginning, the strength of dragons is relatively weaker.
For tens of thousands of years, the power of the dragon clan has been at the peak of the mainland, and many young dragons can't bear such a gap, which is also human nature.
However, this gap is only temporary. In another ten years, it is estimated that these young red dragons will all grow into legendary powerhouses, and the Red Dragon Queen will eventually become a top powerhouse of level 19. Standing on the top of the plane.
In previous games, this has been verified.
In other words, the current situation of the dragon clan has created an opportunity for Link to subdue such a large wave of future powerhouses, and this opportunity is fleeting... With more than 300 legendary powerhouses, Link is tempted.
However, if he is tempted, his face is calm. He pondered for a while, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "Felina, you have also seen that there are not many strong people in Field, and those who are above level 8 There are at least a thousand strong ones, and there are six legendary strong ones, and there will definitely be more in the future. If I accept you, the Queen will be furious, and the covenant with the Dragon Clan just now may be invalidated."
What Link said is also true. Felena hovered in the sky before, and she also had a vague understanding of Field's power. She was very disappointed. Once upon a time, their dragon clan came to this point and wanted to follow a strong man. Those who are too weak will be disliked by the other party.
However, Field is so powerful now, and all of this has been developed in just a few years. Such a miracle can happen, all thanks to the management of Link, the lord.
Link himself is recognized as one of the most powerful battle magicians in the mainland. There are countless strong people who have lost to him. Field is also known as the cemetery of the strong. It is said that even Bryant, who has been famous for a long time, was planted here.
Such a place is really exciting.
Being able to follow such an invincible powerhouse has long been regarded as a great honor by the young red dragons. Felena is one of them. She has a tenacious temperament, so naturally she will not give up easily.
After thinking about it, she said, "Duke, we won't make things difficult for you, just wait."
Link is concerned about the covenant and Her Majesty's feelings. She thinks this is not a problem. At worst, she will go and explain to the Queen herself.
Link is noncommittal, at this level, this matter has been settled, and what he has to do now is not to express his position, but to wait for the development of the situation.
If the Red Dragon Queen acquiesces, he will take these young red dragons into Field as a matter of course. If the Red Dragon Queen strongly opposes, then he will use softer means.
Of course, this is something that will happen later, and the most important thing right now is the crack in the Corolla Mountains.
He handed the scroll that recorded the information to Feliena: "Don't rush what you said, you should look at the specific situation first, and then gather the soldiers and set off for the Corolla Mountains."
Felena took the scroll and quickly browsed it. A few minutes later, she said: "No problem, there are 8 young fighters here this time, and the weakest strength is also at the peak of level 8. I will go and call them over now." .”
Link nodded: "Remember not to alarm Her Majesty, her body is not suitable for fatigue at the moment."
"I understand." Feliena turned and left in a hurry. Unlike the lifeless Red Dragon Elder Pei Dalong, she was full of energy, acted vigorously, and did what she said, without ambiguity at all.
After watching her leave, Link also started to arrange.
He first found Evelina, told her about the situation, and then sent her to chat with the Red Dragon Queen to distract her, then found the Job airship commander in Scorched Earth Ridge, and enlisted the right to use the airship. Called together the powerful people above level 8 in the territory, a total of 300 people were found, 236 were Sunshine Warriors, and 64 were newly promoted magicians in the Magic Tower.
Originally, he should be able to find more strong men, but some time ago, more than half of Field's elites were dispatched to support Orida Fortress, which reduced the number of strong men in the forest by more than half.
None of these powerhouses made a sound. After receiving Link's order, they quietly rushed to the western suburbs of Scorched Earth City.
About 20 minutes later, Nana, the Mage Group, the Sunshine Warrior Group, and 8 Red Dragon Warriors all rushed to the suburbs.
This time, Celine also asked to join the temporary team, and Link agreed.
After waiting for a while, there was a light 'buzzing' sound in the sky. When everyone turned their heads to look, they saw the large airship of the Job people slowly flying over.
This airship is called Sky City. It is a giant newly built a few years ago. It is about 100 meters long, can carry more than 500 people, and can reach a maximum speed of 2,000 kilometers per hour. The soaring rate more than doubled, reaching more than 5,000 kilometers per hour, which was faster than the flying speed of a giant dragon. At this speed, it would take more than two hours to reach the Corolla Mountains.
The captain of the airship is Maureen from Job, an old acquaintance of Link. When he saw Link, he immediately saluted and said, "Lord, everything is ready and ready to go!"
Link nodded and ordered: "Start immediately after everyone boards the boat. First, head slowly to the south. After a hundred kilometers, correct the direction and head to the plane rift in the Corolla Mountains."
While speaking, he suddenly felt something, so he turned his head and glanced in the direction of Jiaotu Ridge. His perverted gaze allowed him to see the elder of the Red Dragon, Pei Dalong, standing by the window of the room and looking at them.
Perhaps sensing Link's gaze, Pei Dalong turned around and drew the curtains at the same time.
Link's heart moved: "Perhaps, taking refuge in Field should be a common voice within the Dragon Clan, and the resistance for me to accept the allegiance of these young dragons should not be as great as I thought. '
This is good news, but Link can hold his breath, he still decides to wait and see what happens.
All those who participated in the operation this time were strong, and they all moved very fast. In less than five minutes, everyone was in their positions.
'Ding Ding Dang Dang', with a crisp bell, Sky City slowly lifts into the sky, speeds up, just like Link ordered, first go south, and fly more than 100 kilometers in five minutes, then, Link forces After joining, the airship began to accelerate slowly, turning into a smooth arc in the sky, turning all the way to the Corolla Mountains.
When the airship set off, on the outskirts of Scorched Earth City, a pair of young men and women dressed as rangers were looking up at the airship going away.
The two were Hamilton and Noah. They went all the way south and arrived in Scorched Earth City five days ago. Although Prince Modenai asked them to investigate the fragments of the Book of Creation, they would not really risk their lives for the high elves. For five days, the two have been wandering outside the city.
However, no one expected that things would turn around.
"Did you see him?" Hamilton asked.
Noah nodded: "I see, he is Lord Field. They actually went to the south and brought so many people with them. Why does it take a day or two to come back?"
Hamilton laughed: "This is an excellent opportunity for us to investigate Field carefully. Well, I think the envoy will definitely be very interested in the power arrangement in Field. If we are lucky and can steal the fragments, that's even more important." Wonderful, hehe."
They came to Ferroman not to help the high elves, but to preach. Since the fusion of the planes is unstoppable, the meaning of the holy envoy is to make Ferroman the new parish of the Agni Cult. Since he wants to do this, Field, who is an important force of Ferroman, naturally needs to learn more about it.
Nuoya hurriedly reminded: "Don't underestimate them, there are still many strong guards in this city."
"I know, don't worry, it is enough to learn a lesson in the Black Forest once." Hamilton shook his hand impatiently, he is not a fool.
While talking, the two walked towards Scorched Earth City.
At the same time, thousands of miles away, there was a valley with dense vegetation on the outskirts of the Korolla Mountains.
"When do you think they will arrive?" It was a magician who spoke. He was surrounded by a dense black light, purple-black lightning flashed continuously on the magic wand in his hand, and dark red flames surged in his eyes.
His name is Goren, and he is a Black Bloodfiend. In this operation, he is the commander of the demon side. In the abyss, he is a heavyweight lieutenant of Nosamas. He is a rare demon mage with extremely strong power. Even in Ferroman, he is suppressed by the laws of the plane, and his power is as high as level 13.
While speaking, his hands kept moving, and he was quickly drawing a magic circle on the ground. Standing beside him was a snake-man, the snake-man holy priest Molina.
Molina was silent for a while, and then said: "It won't be too long, the master has already seen them."
She then said too loudly: "Hurry up, we're running out of time!"
Following her voice, the magicians around her were all invigorated, and their speed increased a lot. On the ground, a giant magic circle across the valley was rapidly forming.
