From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

"Lord Marquis, there is someone who claims to be the Marquis of the Frostwolf from the Golden Duchy. He is here as a reinforcement and hopes to meet you."

Hearing the words of the soldiers outside the door, Marquis Andrew stood up from his seat instantly.

A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he regained his composure. He looked in the direction of the soldiers at the door and said calmly:

"The Golden Duchy? Princess Veronica is here?!"

His expression was serious, but he couldn't hide his excitement.

Marquis Andrew immediately realized what this might mean - they were saved!

"Quickly, invite Marquis Frostwolf in. No, I'll go out and invite him in person."

There was a hint of urgency in Marquis Andrew's tone, but his steps were steady and firm.

His heart beat faster, as if he could hear the joy deep in his heart.

He knew that if Princess Veronica could join this war, the balance of victory would most likely tilt in their favor.

As he walked, his steps paused. He thought of the current undercurrents surging within the kingdom and the heavy losses his territory had suffered.

His heart was filled with regret. If he had known this was the case, he would have gone south with Princess Veronica to open up the principality. With his own strength, it would not be difficult to earn a marquis.

As a result, not only did he fail in the political struggle in the past few decades and was sent to the border area, but he also caught up with the war between the two countries, and his territory was completely wiped out. Now that I think about it, how stupid it is!

But there is no use regretting now. It is better to do everything possible to help Princess Veronica.

For example, he believed that this information would definitely satisfy Princess Veronica about the old guy Edwin Bronze Fury.

"Marquis Frostwolf, please sit down."

The two sides sat down, and Marquis Frostwolf was also a straight-tempered man, and he directly began to ask for relevant information about this war.

And Marquis Andrew naturally told Marquis Frostwolf everything he knew about the situation.

At present, the important border towns in the northwest of the Emerald Kingdom have not been lost, but they have lost most of their population and resources. Fortunately, the kingdom's support was provided in a timely manner. Just when most of their soldiers were dead, the reinforcements All supplies and materials were delivered.

The Emerald Kingdom has sent all three Dukes and 80% of the kingdom's soldiers to the northwest border. If the northwest falls, the Emerald Kingdom may be in danger of being destroyed.

The Orichalcum Kingdom sent about 60% of its soldiers, and the remaining 30% was used to defend against the Blazing Steel Kingdom.

Eighty percent versus sixty percent, it seems like I have the advantage.

But in fact, no matter how many knights there are at the bottom, they can't stop the dragon knight from breathing in the air.

At the beginning, Duke Edwin wanted to gather soldiers to fight the enemy in the field, thinking of regaining the lost territory in one battle, and even reaching the territory of the Orichalcum Kingdom.

The other two adults wanted to dissuade them, but Lord Edwin personally stated that he could fight one against two, which made the other two dragon knights reluctantly agree to the plan.

But what they didn't expect was that the number of dragon knights from the Orichalcum Kingdom was not only one more than theirs, but their overall strength was also far stronger than the dragon knights from the Emerald Kingdom.

And Lord Edwin Bronze Fury has indeed fulfilled his promise. With his one against two and "incomparably heroic" fighting image, he gave Lord Liam Gray Iron and Lord Phoenix Green a great deal of praise. Inspire.

In the end, thanks to Lord Edwin's hard work, he was successfully killed by two enemy dragon knights after the eighth round.

If the dragon knight was not an ordinary flesh and blood life, but a magical life, I am afraid that it would kill Edwin directly.

In the end, that war ended with an extremely tragic price.

Edwin Bronze Fury was seriously injured, Lord Liam Gray Iron had an arm cut off, and Lord Phoenix Green relied on the powerful vitality provided by the Forest Emerald Dragon to forcefully drag down three enemy dragon knights for ten seconds. Minutes, at the cost of serious injuries, the army had time to retreat.

However, the dragon knight's vitality is extremely strong, and injuries such as a cut arm can only be regarded as minor injuries. The next day, Lord Liam was able to fight on the battlefield again.

With the support of Lord Liam, the northwest land did not fall.

Three more days later, Lord Phoenix also successfully recovered. At that time, the situation in the northwest region gradually stabilized, and then Lord Edwin announced that he had recovered from his injury.

During this period, the battle losses of the reinforcements sent by the kingdom had reached 30%.

Most of them were killed by dragon breath in that dragon knight battle.

The three dragon knights also knew how powerful the enemy was, and began to frantically seek help from King Alves and Princess Veronica.

After hearing the previous battles, Marquis Frostwolf had an intuitive understanding of this war.

"Damn it, that old guy Edwin! How dare you pass false information to the principality!!! Lure the Grand Duke into war!!!"

Marquis Frostwolf's angry words were naturally heard by Marquis Andrew.

"What's wrong? What false information?"

Marquis Frostwolf gave Marquis Andrew a cold look.

Anyone who can sit in the position of Marquis is not a fool. It is better to just open the skylight and speak frankly.

"At the St. Gold Castle at that time, Edwin sent many spies to win over the nobles of the principality. He kept saying that they relied on three dragon knights to fight to a draw with four other dragon knights. They only needed the archduke to join the war and they could easily win."

"Ha... Such arrogant lies are really his style, just as arrogant as when he proposed to fight one against two."

Marquis Andrew sneered and mocked.

"Hmph, if all the Grand Duke's intelligence spies hadn't been seconded to the border, how could the Grand Duke have been deceived by such lies!"

Marquis Frostwolf said angrily.

"Then why don't you know? Logically speaking, as a marquis, your spies should be able to find out the news. We are not actively hiding it here."

".....Forgot the pie."

"..."

After a period of silence, the two continued to talk about other things.

"How many soldiers are there in Twilight City now?"

Marquis Frostwolf asked his second question.

"There are three fantasy beast knights, ten sky knights, more than one hundred and twenty earth knights, thousands of grand knights and formal knights, and the rest are all trainee knights."

After hearing this, Marquis Frostwolf shouted dissatisfied:

"Less! Too little! As a duchy, the Golden Duchy can provide four Phantom Beast Knights and hundreds of Earth Knights, but the Twilight City, as the frontline fortress of the Emerald Kingdom, only has so little combat power?"

Lord Andrew explained:

"This is just part of it. A considerable amount of troops have been gathered in cities like Auroville and Auroville."

Marquis Frostwolf had the final say.

"That's quite a few."

.....

"They all died in the first war. The enemy's dragon knights specifically targeted the flying sky knights and fantasy beast knights. Without the help of mid-to-high-end combat power, we were retreating steadily and lost a lot of troops. Low-to-medium level combat effectiveness.”

Marquis Andrew recalled the situation. If he hadn't contracted a wind-attributed phantom beast and was fast enough, otherwise he would have been on that battlefield.

But it was a pity that his family and his sons all died in that war. This was one of the reasons why he hated Edwin Bronze Fury.

He had a deep impression of that war and could recall that scene almost every time he slept.

On the battlefield, swords clashed, and armors made crisp clashing sounds, accompanied by the roars and screams of the soldiers.

Blood dyed the ground red, broken limbs and broken arms could be seen everywhere, and the smell of death enveloped every corner.

The dragon knights fought in the air, and magic also intertwined in the air. The interaction between the two shone with strange light.

The fire burned brightly, the frost was biting, and the electric shock was deafening.

When the dragon knight appeared to be in decline, the magicians accompanying the army recited spells and released powerful power in an attempt to reverse the situation of the battle.

But the cruelty and ruthlessness of the war made their efforts seem so insignificant.

As Duke Edwin was beheaded, Lord Bronze Dragon also had one of his wings bitten off by the enemy's dragon.

The dragon's blood suddenly turned into a downpour, falling towards the ground.

War is an endless nightmare, swallowing up all the good things and hopes. It breaks the earth and sinks people's hearts. There is only endless pain and sorrow.

After listening to Marquis Andrew's description, Marquis Frostwolf gently patted his shoulder to express comfort.

Although he had not participated in such a large-scale war, he could feel the tragedy of that war through Marquis Andrew's description.

"Please have your condolences..."

Marquis Frostwolf's voice was low and serious, with a hint of coldness in his words.

These words seemed like he was expressing sympathy to Marquis Andrew, but they also seemed like a routine matter.

Marquis Andrew knew very well the character of Marquis Frostwolf. He would not express emotions easily or comfort people.

Therefore, he was not offended by the words of Marquis Frostwolf. Instead, he cheered up under the gaze of Marquis Frostwolf.

"You still have this dead iceberg face. Are you still feeling the aftereffects of the frost wolf fusion?"

Marquis Andrew said jokingly to Marquis Frostwolf.

He tried to break the tense atmosphere and make the atmosphere between the two more relaxed.

Marquis Frostwolf shook his head, his face still expressionless.

"It probably won't get better, and I don't plan to waste resources on this, so why not just forget it."

Marquis Frostwolf's tone was calm and firm, and there was a calm strength in his voice.

Marquis Andrew sighed, he knew that Marquis Frostwolf's decision was unshakable.

The two talked for a while, and finally it was Marquis Frostwolf who took the lead in saying goodbye. He still has important things to do. He wants to tell all the nobles of the Golden Duchy who are going to war this time about Edwin. Bronze Fury deceiving them, so that they know what kind of person Edwin is.

There was a firm light in his eyes, as if to show his determination to Marquis Andrew.

Marquis Andrew nodded, he understood what Marquis Frostwolf was thinking.

"Must survive..."

"Yes, we must survive..."
