From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Originally, the number of dragon knights in the Emerald Kingdom was scarce, and it was even more dwarfed by that of the Mountain Copper Kingdom.

However, after a series of disturbances such as rebellion and internal friction, the number of dragon knights in the Emerald Kingdom dropped sharply, hitting a historical low.

Today, including Veronica, there are only five dragon knights in the entire Emerald Kingdom, while the Mountain Copper Kingdom has as many as seven.

Fortunately, there are three dragon knights from the Blazing Steel Kingdom to check and balance, which makes the Mountain Copper Kingdom afraid to easily send a large number of dragon knights to invade the territory of the Emerald Kingdom.

However, the Emerald Kingdom has suffered heavy losses in the battles between the Fantasy Beast Knights and the Sky Knights.

Taking advantage of this banquet, Veronica will solemnly declare that the Golden Grand Duchy will officially intervene in the war as an ally of the Emerald Kingdom.

At that time, one dragon knight, four Fantasy Beast Knights, more than ten Sky Knights and hundreds of Earth Knights will join the battlefield.

And this is the strongest combat force that the Golden Grand Duchy can mobilize.

As for those below the rank of Grand Knight, they would just be sent to the battlefield, so it is better for them to stay at home, especially those with good talents.

This war is destined to be cruel. The dragon knights who are usually high up will be in danger of their lives, not to mention other knights.

Thinking of this, Veronica couldn't help but sigh deeply.

In the Golden Grand Duchy, she is a unique dragon knight with top strength.

However, once she steps into the territory of the Emerald Kingdom, she is just one of the five great dragon knights - the Golden Dragon Knight.

In terms of combat effectiveness, she is far inferior to the Emerald Dragon driven by her brother, and is only slightly better than other ordinary dragon knights.

And when she is on the battlefield of the kingdom, she becomes one of more than ten dragon knights.

It can be foreseen that the future battles will be extremely difficult.

By then, how many people in the team she leads will survive?

Maybe even herself...

Even for Veronica, who has lived for 110 years, this is the first time she has experienced such a national-level war. It is absolutely a lie to say that she is not nervous at all.

However, she had no choice.

She was not only a dragon knight, but also a ruler.

Since she enjoyed the conveniences brought by her status, she must bravely bear the corresponding responsibilities.

In terms of this alone, no matter whether it was the king who was high above or the ordinary baron, they could not escape this responsibility.

Well, civilians and slaves did not have to, because they would always be the precious wealth of the ruling class.

"Get up, Viscount Klober. It is really gratifying to see you at this time."

Veronica's tone was steady and sincere.

Feeling the surging fighting spirit in Klober's body, Veronica could not help but be shocked.

She was keenly aware that the fighting spirit in his body had reached its peak, as if it was only one step away from the second transformation of fighting spirit.

This meant that Klober was qualified to be promoted to the Earth Knight.

"Is your fighting spirit... about to break through to the Earth Knight realm?"

Veronica widened her eyes and asked in disbelief.

He was not surprised by the realm of an ordinary earth knight, but was shocked by Krober's cultivation speed.

She clearly remembered that Krober had completed the breakthrough of the Great Knight in the Hild Fortress during the Western Expedition some time ago.

However, only half a year had passed, and he was about to step into the level of the Earth Knight?

Recalling her experience when she was young, Veronica was filled with emotion.

Even she spent nearly a year and a half, and went through countless hardships and obstacles to successfully break through to the level of the Earth Knight.

Even so, she was still praised as a peerless genius by the nobles of the kingdom.

More importantly, she had the powerful help of the Golden Dragon Blood Potion at that time, so she could achieve a breakthrough so quickly.

But Krober did not have so many resources to support him.

"My Lord, I am indeed only one step away from becoming an Earth Knight, but this is not entirely due to my talent, but because I developed a new potion in my territory."

After that, Krobel introduced the efficacy and effects of the Bauhinia Rose potion to Grand Duke Veronica in detail, and even took out the finished product he brought with him to show it.

Veronica took the dark purple potion in her hand, feeling the abundant magic power and dragon blood fluctuations in it, and she couldn't help but cast a worried look at Krobel.

"Such a strong dragon blood fluctuation, didn't you have any infection after taking it?"

From Veronica's perspective, such a strong dragon blood fluctuation may even have a certain infection effect on the Fantasy Beast Knight. Krobel is just a great knight, how could he resist the infection of dragon blood.

But Krobel shook his head, indicating that he was not infected by dragon blood.

He just casually lingered his fighting spirit on his palm, but the elegant purple-gold color instantly attracted Grand Duke Veronica's attention.

"Isn't this the symbol of being infected..."

Veronica thought to herself.

Wait! No!

She suddenly realized that this was indeed the sign of being infected, but Krober told him clearly that this was not an infection.

Could it be that Krober has a dragon-eating physique?

As a princess of the kingdom, Veronica has received all kinds of top-level education since she was a child, and she is naturally familiar with the concept of dragon-eating body.

"But, Krober did not mention this explicitly. Is it because he is still unaware of it? Or is it because he is still unsure?"

Out of trust in Krober, and the fact that this matter is indeed not suitable for excessive publicity, a different kind of tacit understanding was born between the two, and they chose to turn a blind eye to it.

"Viscount Krober, practice well in Saint Gold Castle these days. After the banquet, I will lead most of the high-end combat forces in the principality to the battlefield. You will be my representative in the principality to recruit subsequent troops and supplies for me."

Veronica was worrying about who would guarantee her logistics after she left, and Krober happened to appear in front of her at this time. If he succeeded in breaking through, his strength as an earth knight would be enough to manage the empty Golden Grand Duchy due to the high-level combat forces going out to participate in the war.

And he also knew Krober's ability, and she was relieved to leave the logistics work to him.

Although Veronica still had many things to discuss with Krober, in view of the increase in guests in Saint Gold Castle, Krober could no longer stay in the throne hall as before.

After all, many eyes were watching outside the hall. Although Krober still served as the imperial herald, he came this time as the viscount directly under the Grand Duke, and should follow the rules of vassal audience with the master.

So, after a few simple exchanges, Krober withdrew from the Grand Duke and returned to his room.

(The room next to the throne hall)

Pushing open the door, the familiar layout and decoration appeared in front of Krober.

The room was clean and tidy, indicating that someone would often come to clean for him when Krober was not at home.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, and on the table next to him were placed more than a dozen dark purple amethyst rose potions, which were the guarantee for his second transformation of fighting spirit.

There were still three days before the banquet, and Krober planned to use this time to promote himself to the realm of Earth Knight.

Compared with the first transformation of fighting spirit, the second transformation of fighting spirit required when promoting to Earth Knight is much more difficult than the first transformation.

The first transformation only requires the infusion of magic power, and after reaching the limit, the fighting spirit will automatically begin to change in quality and transform into a liquid state.

The principle of the second transformation of Dou Qi is to transform the liquid Dou Qi into a unique circulation state.

Whether Dou Qi is in gaseous or liquid form, when the knight is not using it, it exists quietly in the knight's body like a sleeping lion.

Only when the knight uses fighting skills or strengthens his body will Dou Qi start to flow like a wild horse.

The Earth Knight is different. The Dou Qi in their body will form a cycle in the body, like a surging torrent, greatly increasing the overall quality and activity of Dou Qi.

If the Dou Qi of the Great Knight is a drop of water, then the Dou Qi of the Earth Knight is the ocean current surrounding the continent, which is endless and endless.

And because the Dou Qi has been circulating in the knight's body, the body of the Earth Knight will be greatly enhanced, and ordinary swords and knives will not leave any traces.

Of course, if the Dou Qi of the same level is attached, it will also cause damage.

However, the combat power of the Earth Knight is a cliff-like growth.

A great knight may be able to easily defeat a dozen formal knights, but he can also be hurt by formal knights.

The earth knight is different. He just stands there and lets you hit him. Dozens of great knights will not hurt him.

Well...weaknesses like eyes are not counted. Although they are equally powerful, weaknesses are still weaknesses, and they are weaker than other parts.

Moreover, the fighting spirit of the earth knight recovers very quickly, and the body is as solid as the earth, so the ancestors called this realm "earth knight."
