Underdark.
Under the upside-down luminous stone forest, a city with towering walls lies on the ground, like a giant beast dormant in the dark.
Isaac City, that's the name of the city.
Legendary Blue Dragon, Blue Fang—Williams Hassalak Isaac named the most important stronghold under his command after himself.
But in fact, the city of Isaac was not built by Blue Fang, but the legacy of his Red Nest Mistress, Savannah.
In the framework of the Red Nest Matriarch, Isaac City is the capital city of the five surrounding Underdark regions, and it is a transit point connecting the Underdark regions and the ground Red Nest. Its geographical location is extremely important.
At this time, the arched city gate of Isaac City.
Kobolds, cavemen, jackals and other monster residents are queuing up to enter the city. Guards with weapons stand on both sides of the city gate. Body ogre.
The guards stared at the monster residents queuing up to enter the city, and urged them to put the city entry tax into the locked iron box.
Copper coins were inserted through the narrow entrance of the iron box, fell inside the iron box, and made a clanging sound when they hit the pile of coins.
"Pay the taxes and leave! Don't dawdle! Haha!"
The jackal looked domineering, and hit the caveman on the buttocks with the spear in his hand, and let out a mocking laugh, and the other guards around him also laughed together.
Not only the guards, but also the monster residents queuing up laughed together, only a very small number of cave dwellers felt uncomfortable.
"Did you see his face just now! It turned red all of a sudden! Haha! It's like a monkey's butt! It's so interesting!" The gnoll guard laughed with the guards beside him.
"Um?!"
Suddenly, he saw a Jackal officer walking out of the city, and immediately stopped laughing: "Master Guard, why are you here?"
The deputy guard of the wolf man - Hardy squinted at his kind with a smile on his face, and said angrily: "What? I have to report to you for what I am here!"
"No...no...don't dare!" The jackal guard shrank his neck and waved his hands again and again.
The other guards around put away their laughing expressions and looked solemn. They noticed that the boss in front of him seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't have a good look at the same kind who were closer to him on weekdays.
Fortunately, Deputy Guard Hardy didn't delve into it. He wandered around the gate of the city, glanced at the gray outside of the city, and went back.
After the boss left, several monster guards got together to discuss.
"Hey, does any of you know what happened to Master Hardy?"
"Maybe it's because the promotion didn't go well this time. I heard that something happened to the guard at the East City Gate. The higher-ups are going to promote one of the four deputy guards."
"Strange, last time I heard that Mr. Hardy has great hopes. After all, the strength of the middle-level peak fighters lies..."
"..."
On the other side, Hardy was walking slowly on the streets of Isaac City, his brows were always entwined with a touch of sadness. The reason why he felt bored was this promotion event, but it was not that the promotion was not smooth, but that it was too smooth and smooth. no match.
For ordinary monsters, being promoted is definitely a great thing, but Hardy is not, because he is a spy, a spy who was placed in the territory of the blue fangs by Mordo Peak Forest.
"Hey~!" Walking in the deserted alley, Hardy sighed, recalling the past.
More than 20 years ago, he was born in the Moskin Gnoll clan in Modo Peak Forest. Like all male Gnolls, he was labeled as a soldier from birth, and he walked on the path of the great master of Modo Peak Forest as the Wolf Man. The road arranged by the family.
Talent testing, various professional warrior training, professional education...
Among the students in the same period, Hardy has always been among the best. He thought that he would become a glorious wolf cavalry soldier like many outstanding tribal predecessors, fighting for honor.
Until he took a special test and got a good grade in it.
As a result, Hardy's fate took a turn, and he became a spy.
After more than half a year of special devil training, he passed the test and was sent to the Red Nest Crypt to become a member of the original pioneers.
Survive in the wilderness, fight the beasts of the Underdark, and fight other intelligent creatures...
After experiencing hardships, finally, Hardy waited for the opportunity. He mixed with a group of gnoll refugees, came to the territory of the blue fang, and accepted the "shelter" of the legendary dragon.
This "asylum" lasted for more than ten years.
Small town soldier, small town guard chief, small town guard officer, and small town guard officer have been promoted all the way, stepping closer to the power core of Blue Fang, until now, the deputy guard officer of the west gate of Isaac City.
In the not-too-distant future, he is very likely to be promoted to become an official city gate guard.
Isaac City is the main city under the command of Canglanfang. The lawful and evil blue dragon lord naturally attaches great importance to the defense of the main city. Official city gate guards have always been served by family members.
Becoming a full-time guard means that he is about to be summoned by the blue tooth and transformed into a true dragon family member, and everything will be exposed by then.
"Hey! You shouldn't break through!" Feeling the power of the high-level fighters surging in his body, Hardy sighed.
The high-ranking warrior was already very conspicuous in the Underdark. He attracted the attention of a master-level blue dragon family member, and thus this crisis came about. Fortunately, the blue tooth had just fallen into a deep sleep, and he still had time to prepare.
Suddenly, shadows squirmed at the corner of the alley, and a kobold with oil paint on his face appeared.
The kobold thief touched his chest with one hand, bowed slightly, and said calmly: "The crimson wings protect you and me."
Hardy looked solemn: "You and I are the people of Red."
"My lord guard, there is news from above. The shortest is half a year, and the longest is two years..."
"..."
After the conversation, the kobold thief disappeared into the alley, and Hardy walked out of the alley as if nothing had happened.
He is expressionless on the surface, but in fact he is ecstatic inside.
After more than ten years, it's almost time...
……………
Five months later, Moduo Peak Forest.
Beside the lava lake, José, who had been practicing in closed doors for five months, showed ecstasy on his face. Just now, he became a real master-level mage.
"Finally! Finally succeeded!"
Stepping into the master level is of great significance to Jose. If he was only able to fight against ordinary legendary powerhouses before, then after becoming a master level mage, he is confident that he can deal with some weaker legendary spellcasters.
If you learn the three master magics recorded in [Doomsday Catastrophe], you will be even more invincible.
The five high-level magics: [Lava Burst], [Earth Fire], [Meteor Fire Rain·Improved Version], [Lava Armor·Improved Version], and [Fire Control] are the foundation.
The three master-level magics are created based on the foundation, they are [Earth Fire Burning City], [Meteor Explosion·Improved Version] and [Fire Elemental Barrier].
[Earth Fire Burning City] is an advanced magic based on [Lava Eruption] and [Earth Fire Art]. It is a magic with a large range. The lava and ground fire summoned are enough to destroy the city.
In terms of damage range, [Earth Fire Burns City] is comparable to most legendary magics, but it is only classified as a master magic because it poses little threat to legendary powerhouses.
[Meteor Explosion], this magic is deeply remembered by Jose, because his predecessor was affected by the exploding meteorite on the Red Nest battlefield, causing serious injuries and eventually died.
And [Meteor Burst·Improved Version] is an improved version of [Meteor Burst], which greatly enhances the power of this magic.
The last one, [Fire Element Barrier] is improved on the basis of [Lava Armor Improved Version], and it is also Jose's favorite magic. It inherits the characteristic of absorbing fire elements to strengthen defense.
Feeling the hollowed out body, Jose suppressed the urge to study the three master-level magic immediately, lying on the shore of the lava lake and waiting for the magic power to recover naturally.
While waiting for the magic power to recover, he took out the latest map of the Red Nest Crypt, which marked different areas in red, blue, green, black and other colors.
Looking at the spheres of influence of the various true dragons, Jose's eyes flickered.
Intervening in the Red Nest Crypt was an inevitable path for him. The reasons were many and complicated. The most realistic point was to expand the living space.
The development of Moduo Peak Forest and Triangle Plain has encountered a bottleneck.
The central part of the prairie is already his sphere of influence, and to the east is Yangfan Port. In Yangfan Port, there is a legendary mage sitting in the mage tower, and behind him is a giant trading city-state.
To the west is the barbarian territory, and the three legends of the barbarian holy city are not difficult to deal with, but the forces of the northern countries have their own demands in the barbarian territory, and the Northland Witch Council is behind the scenes. It's better not to touch the mold.
The north is the restricted area of life - the Great Glacier, and the Dark Forest is the territory of the allies of the elves. There are not many choices left for the red dragon.
Jogol Mountains, South, and Rednest Crypt.
The Jogol Mountains area is too sensitive, even the four legendary true dragons in the Red Nest Crypt dare not touch it, let alone Jose.
In the south, opening up the Mirkwood and building a trade route connecting the Northland and the Northland prairie means breaking the existing balance, and at the same time touching the sensitive nerves of Sunsail Port, the barbarians, and the Northland Witch Council. Jose will not do this.
If the four sides cannot move, then only the Red Nest Crypt remains.
It just so happens that the Red Nest Crypt has a lot of natural resources. The minerals deep in the ground and the magic plants produced by the special environment in the dark area can solve the development problem of the Mordo Peak Forest, and the vast land resources can solve the problem of food and population growth.
Moreover, after more than ten years of infiltration by spies, the situation in the Red Nest Crypt has been completely revealed in front of Jose.
His eyes scanned back and forth between the four large areas of red, blue, green, and black.
Four legendary true dragon forces: Red Dragon-Wings of Havoc, Blue Dragon-Blue Fang, Green Dragon-Poison Emerald, Black Dragon-Black Blood Tyrant.
First of all, let’s talk about the Red Dragon—Wings of Havoc. There is no doubt that Wings of Havoc is the strongest among the four legendary true dragons. This can be seen from the territory it occupies.
The Wings of Havoc directly ruled fifteen Underdark regions, one giant, three large, and the rest were small and medium-sized.
Although powerful, Wings of Havoc is not very lucky.
Perhaps because of his dislike of red dragons, the fallen golden dragon and the uncrowned king of the polluters—Glorious Scale clung to the Wings of Havoc, and came to make trouble every now and then.
Let’s talk about the blue dragon—Blue Fang, which originally ruled twelve regions of the Underdark, but now there are only nine.
This matter has to start with the black blood tyrant - O'Neill. O'Neill stepped into the legendary field more than ten years ago. Before stepping into the legendary field, he had been working under the blue tooth.
After stepping into the legend, O'Neill suddenly launched an attack. With the secret support of the green dragon, he seized part of the territory of the Blue Fang, and made an alliance with the drow elves. Now he has gained a firm foothold.
It's just that O'Neill's good days are coming to an end, because Jose is staring at him.
The reason why O'Neal was chosen as the breakthrough point was not entirely because of past grievances. O'Neill himself was very suitable as a breakthrough point.
First, O'Neill was the latest to enter the legend, and he was the last among the four legendary true dragons. If it weren't for the green dragon's secret support, he would have been unable to compete with the blue tooth.
Second, the nickname of Black Blood Tyrant is not for nothing. O'Neill used bloody terror to rule the monsters under his command, which caused a lot of problems inside him and gave Jose an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Thirdly, it is naturally because of the old hatred.
Jose has never been a big-bellied dragon. He has a deep memory of the black dragon who made things difficult for him several times, sent him to die, and almost succeeded in killing him.
As for how to overthrow the rule of the black dragon, Jose also has a preliminary idea, uniting the blue tooth to fight against O'Neal and the green dragon.
Among the four legendary true dragons in the Red Nest Crypt, what José fears the most is the green dragon—Poison Emerald. This guy is the one who sends the most spies to the Red Dragon's territory among the four legendary true dragons.
In addition, her past record can't help Jose not being vigilant.
Supporting O'Neill to divide the territory of the blue tooth, but he himself is alone, watching the death battle between the blue dragon and the black dragon, and at most only comes out to deter and maintain balance in critical moments.
Moreover, there are various indications that the famous poisonous jadeite and the Dragon Worship Cult are closely related, and there are many cooperations.
It is worth mentioning that the four legendary true dragons also have some adult true dragons as vassals, and these adult true dragons rule some small and medium-sized Underdark regions.
In addition, there are two drow cities around the red nest crypt, and the two drow cities are allied with the black dragon and the green dragon respectively.
Seeing the large gray and white area on the map, Jose's eyes flashed with concern. This is the territory of the polluters.
The polluter, the monster created by the Matriarch of the Red Nest through forbidden magic experiments, can pollute flesh and blood creatures and turn them into species between undead and demons. What's more frightening is that this unknown energy can even infect legendary true dragons.
Golden dragon—the scale of brilliance, the common object of fear of the four legendary true dragons of red, blue, green, and black.
Over the years, the Blue Fang, the Poisonous Emerald, and the Black Blood Tyrant have reached a tacit understanding that no matter how fierce the three fight, they will never provoke the red dragon, Wings of Havoc.
Not only because the Wings of Havoc are too strong, but also because the Wings of Havoc are fighting against the Scales of Glory, and slowing down the speed at which the Defilers spread around.
In addition, Jose also collected some information about the Glorious Scale.
The unlucky golden dragon captured by the red nest mistress didn't seem to be completely insane, and would occasionally wake up once in a while.
Thanks to Maochanggan for the 100 coin reward, thanks to Yayla for the 500 coin reward, and thanks to BBSTO for the 500 coin reward.
Ahem, begging for a monthly ticket with the cheek.
