Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 198: A world that has been changed

Views:

After a long silence, the only sound that could be heard was the turning of pages.

In front of the desk, the black-haired warrior narrowed his eyes and looked at the report in his hand seriously.

Moldavia is not the only place that has been attacked by dragon beasts in recent days. The fringes of the four territories in the North have all been attacked by these original dragons to a greater or lesser extent. Many villages built on the edge of woods and rivers have been affected by this. As for the destruction, in the Moldavia territory alone, four villages and towns were destroyed, and a total of 642 people died.

This does not include the disabled and missing people. The corpses are only a rough count. The actual losses should be higher than this number.

The Northland is originally sparsely populated. Counting the various races of dwarves, goblins and gnomes, the population of Moldavia may not exceed one million, and humans account for less than one-third of the total population, more than 600, nearly Thousands of people died and many more were injured, which was an unacceptable loss for the territory.

Among the letters sent, there were also realistic paintings formed by using magic to collect pictures, all of which showed the miserable appearance of various villages and towns after being attacked: houses were burned and trampled, broken human corpses were scattered everywhere, cultivated farmland, exquisite workshops, Everything was completely destroyed, and Joshua also saw a woman with only half of her body left in a certain drawing. She was holding a child in her arms, as if she wanted to protect him with her body.

But it was of no use, because her child, like her, was bitten by the dragon beast and lost half of its body.

A heavy atmosphere spread in the study, and the air that had begun to become hot in the sunny moon seemed to have returned to winter, bone-chillingly cold.

Rin, who delivered the news, stood respectfully by the desk. He quietly raised his head and looked at Joshua.

The boy showed this expression when he saw his master for the first time.

In fact, the master rarely gets angry. Ever since he summoned him to the dwarf gathering area, then wandered around the other world and then came back, he has not been angry for such a long time, even in the occasional battles on weekdays. , for the master, it is just a relaxing pastime like other nobles going out hunting, rather than a manifestation of a certain emotion.

Just like hunting demons summoned through the Book of Ebon, the owner obviously regards them as side dishes after afternoon tea. Eat some side dishes, kill a demon and drink it. These are the warrior's original words.

But now, the divine boy can clearly feel his master's anger.

Like the hot lava about to erupt under a volcano, a devastating disaster is brewing.

"I've been busy for a long time and actually forgot about this. It seems that my brain is really not working well."

In this dull atmosphere, Joshua spoke. The corners of his mouth curled up, but the first thing he said was actually self-deprecating: "As the saying goes, people can't do four things at the same time. In this way, I am still ordinary." Within human limits.”

The voice was calm and emotionless, but it made Rin breathe out softly.

Being able to laugh at himself means that the master still has sense and will not make any wrong judgments.

At this time, Joshua was thinking seriously. What happened had already happened, so whether it was anger or other emotions, it was meaningless. What he needed to do was to calm down and avoid greater losses later.

Therefore, his mind began to recall a lot of scattered information that he had obtained in the past.

In the Black Forest Fortress, after killing the Ice Giant Mammoth, when he had just obtained the Abyss derivatives, the White-haired and muscular Mage Tutor of the Black Forest Fortress, Feng, once said that he had been with the White Dragon in the North. I have experienced a similar atmosphere among the group of people.

And during the entire Kuroshio period, there were indeed not many dragon beasts that appeared.

Based on these two points alone, it can be seen that the abnormal black tide and the cause of the crazy dragon disease are inextricably linked to the five-color dragon clan, not to mention that Joshua already knew this because of his previous life.

In fact, there are many other scattered clues. When combined, one can indeed feel the turbulent undercurrent behind the entire continent. Joshua had indeed discovered this information before, and even acted on it one by one. Contact, the only thing he didn't expect was that it would happen so early.

In the previous life, this was a major event that would only occur in the late summer of next year, but now it is only July 17, Year 832 of Starfall.

"Dragon disaster, is it ahead of schedule... It's almost a year ahead of schedule."

Looking back at the huge magic map hanging on the wall of his room, Joshua stood up, walked to the map, and quietly observed the distribution of the cities and many large beasts marked on it.

Indeed, the sign of the dragon disaster has appeared, and it is indeed ahead of schedule. No matter how late it is, before autumn comes, the great dragon disaster from the far south will sweep across the entire continent, and countless crazy dragon monsters will be the most crazy. The gesture impacts the gathering place of human beings.

Unlike the Kuroshio, the Kuroshio in various places is just some kind of natural phenomenon, and wild beasts will even kill each other. The dragon disaster is like an army composed of dragons. They will gather together, build fortifications, and form alliances. Form a group and use your wisdom to fight against humans.

The attacks on the Northland today are nothing more than drizzle compared to the apocalyptic scene at that time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head.

This is normal. There are no more players on the Mycroft continent, and this change is too huge. There are not tens of millions of terrifying existences that can be resurrected and kill without limit. The world cannot remain unchanged. It is normal for huge changes to occur. The dragon disaster is just a small thing.

"The orcs, who were originally supposed to be extinct in March this year, were not conquered by His Majesty the Emperor until recently. The Dragon Disaster was brought forward earlier because of the same reason."

The warrior whispered to himself softly: "There are no longer so many players assisting the army in attacking the orcs, and there are no longer so many players secretly sabotaging the plans of the five-color dragons... The turning point of history has been changed."

However, now is not the time to think about such things.

"These damn five-color dragons originally planned to cause trouble for you later."

With a ferocious arc at the corner of his mouth, Joshua shifted his gaze to the North Icefield on the map.

"Now it seems that I should have taken action earlier."

These beasts are obviously tired of living.

He stretched out a finger and pressed it on a piece of white snow.

The sound of cracking walls was heard, and the granite wall behind the map was directly crushed into powder by the warrior's strength, and then leaked out from the gaps.

On the map, there is a huge white dragon-shaped mark marked there.

It also says in bold letters: Danger White Dragon Gathering Place!
