From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

The Blazing Steel Kingdom pressed all the dragon knights on the border with the Mountain Copper Kingdom, successfully entangled two dragon knights.

The Magic Mountain Copper Dragon, like the Magic Emerald Dragon of the Emerald Kingdom, could only stay in the capital to prevent being attacked.

The remaining four dragon knights rushed to the border to fight with the three dukes of the Emerald Kingdom.

Although it was three against four, the three dukes of the Emerald Kingdom relied on the home advantage to tie with the opponent at the beginning.

But as time passed, the home advantage was no longer effective, so the three of them asked for help from the kingdom and also asked for help from the Golden Grand Duchy in their own name.

Among the three letters of help, the one written by Edwin Bronze Fury was the longest.

Every word in it accused Veronica of neglecting her country and being ungrateful, and not coming to help when her brother was in danger.

King Alvis never wrote a letter to urge his sister, but just borrowed all the intelligence personnel from his sister.

But Veronica is still a sentimental person. After her father's death, her only relative in the world was her brother King Alvis.

So after weighing the pros and cons, she resolutely decided to raise an army and go on an expedition to the Mountain Copper Kingdom to help the Emerald Kingdom win the war.

Hearing this, Earl Stephen angrily slapped the table, and the powerful fighting spirit of the Earth Knight directly shattered the entire table.

"You bastard! Edwin Bronze Fury is also a bastard! How dare you be so disrespectful to the Grand Duke!

His abacus beads are about to hit the face of the entire Golden Duchy!

What does he want to do?!

Annex the Golden Duchy?!"

Earl Stephen's sudden move actually made Rice unable to do anything.

He originally thought that Stephen wrote the letter to surrender to Lord Bronze Fury, but now it seems that this is not the case?

Rice is just a great knight, and for spies, the strength of a great knight is enough.

After all, people above the level of Earth Knight are now charging on the battlefield, and the Great Knight is already considered very good.

But Earl Stephen is also an Earth Knight after all, although he has fallen to the unit of measurement of Krober's combat power.

But one hundred and twenty base stations are also considered to be at a medium level among the Earth Knights.

Looking at Les who was easily subdued by him, Earl Stephen smiled disdainfully.

"Rotten Orange is (crossed out) a guy from the Knight School who has a short vision. How do you know why a noble like us can be passed down for a long time."

Rely on betrayal?

Rely on the vision of judging the situation!

Didn't Earl Stephen think of betrayal?

He thought about it!

And he was sure that most of the nobles who attended the banquet at that time would have this idea.

But the same thing.

When the cost of betrayal is too high, loyalty becomes his only choice.

This is the definition of loyalty.

For Earl Stephen, Grand Duke Veronica is more in line with his mind for a ruler.

Kind, generous, and less trouble.

Normally, he only needs to stay in the territory to practice and govern the territory.

As for Edwin Bronze Fury, Stephen had heard of his shamelessness, greed and meanness when he was still in the Emerald Kingdom.

If such a person became his lord, I am afraid that all the good things in his family would go into Edwin's pocket.

This was unacceptable to Stephen.

So he chose to tear his face with the other party directly, and took Les to the Grand Duke to show his loyalty, just to make up for the mistakes he made at the birthday party.

From this point of view, he did not lose, and even made a lot of money.

The fact was as he expected. When he escorted Les to the Grand Duke, the Grand Duke was not surprised by this, but praised the loyalty of the Moonlight Mushroom Family.

Not only did he give a lot of rewards, but he also promised that when Stephen broke through the Sky Knight, she would give him the title of Marquis as soon as possible, so that he would be on an equal footing with the Golden Rose Family from then on.

Looking at Stephen's back as he left happily, Veronica showed a sneer on her face.

"Oh, loyalty!"

Soon, the news that Count Stephen had exposed Duke Edwin's intention to harm the Duchy spread throughout the entire Saint Gold Castle.

From that day on, nobles came to the throne hall one after another, claiming that they were also lobbied by the spies under Edwin Bronze Fury.

So Grand Duke Veronica was "furious" and ordered the arrest of Duke Edwin's industries and personnel in the Golden Duchy.

After more than ten days of searching and arresting, Duke Edwin's dozens of shops in the Golden Duchy, three large caravans, more than ten small caravans, and more than two thousand related personnel were all arrested.

Then there was a large-scale killing and house raiding. Veronica even killed several small nobles who were too deeply involved in this matter.

After this operation, the other nobles obviously became much more "loyal".

Not only were they more actively preparing for war, but they also invested in purchasing a large amount of military supplies.

These included but were not limited to weapons and armor, military rations, potions, gems, etc.

All military supplies in Saint Gold Castle were swept away.

At this time, Kroeber, who was still building Amethyst Island, also encountered his own problems.

"You mean, many people have witnessed encountering monsters on the shore?"

Kroeber carefully read the detailed report that Hyer gave him about this matter.

At the beginning, it was just a slave who accidentally discovered a sneaky black shadow on the shore when he got up at night.

He originally thought it was some disobedient guy who violated the order and came to the beach to catch seafood privately.

So he quickly shouted loudly, trying to stop the man's actions.

Just as he was yelling, the sneaky figure set its sights on him.

At that time, he really saw the general appearance of the creature.

The creature was huge and muscular.

Moreover, there are hard scales on the body, which shine with a cold light under the moonlight.

Sharp fangs were exposed from the corners of his mouth, emitting bursts of cold light.

Their eyes were like wild beasts, full of ferocity and ferocity.

Their long fins and tails correspond to human legs, making them look strong and powerful.

There are sharp thorns on the top of the head and sharp and curved claws.

The moment he saw the monster, he let out the loudest scream in his life due to fear.

And this scream seemed to scare the monster. I wonder if it was because it was afraid that other people would hear the sound and rush over to support it immediately.

So it didn't kill the slave who found it, but dived directly into the sea and escaped.

Regarding this matter, Heier also specifically asked Yan. He wanted to know whether the Sea People tribe had encountered similar creatures after living on this island for so long.

Yan said that his tribe had never recorded such a creature that walked on its tail.

Reluctantly, he could only tell Samuel Magician about this matter.

Unexpectedly, Magician Samuel seemed to have thought of something after hearing the news, and hurriedly ran to his tent to check the information. This search lasted for several days.

Heier specially strengthened the night patrol team for this purpose, and also entrusted Yan, the great knight, to take charge.

As a result, within a few days, a patrol found the monster again on the other side of the island.

The description is probably similar to what the slave said the first time.

So Hewell had to arrange most of the team to patrol at night, and he and Yan would be responsible for inspecting half of the island alone.

Hewell even asked the soldiers to make a large number of traps. If they found traces of the monster, they would light the powder bird as a warning as soon as possible.

The Powder Bird is a magical item invented by Samuel.

Made from a small amount of gem powder and soil, the levitation and amplification techniques attached to the powder bird can be triggered by igniting, crushing, and beating.

In fact, the shape of the powder bird is not the shape of a bird. When Samuel originally made it, he only considered portability, not aesthetics.

So the powder bird is a gray-looking sphere, just because it is attached with the levitation technique, and the amplification technique will make the human voice extra sharp, just like the cry of a bird.

That's why the soldiers called it the powder bird.
