From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

After a night of rest, the huge noble coalition army, led by Grand Duke Veronica, set out on the road to the Hild Fortress.

The Moonlight Mushroom Family and other small nobles had already gone to the Hild Fortress yesterday to do vigilance and exploration work, waiting for the Grand Duke to lead the main force to the fortress to join forces.

The Hild Fortress is located in the far west of the entire principality, like a bright pearl inlaid on the border.

This ancient and solid fortress carries the vicissitudes of history and traces of time. It has witnessed the last two fierce pioneering wars and is a precious fortress left in the tragic war.

Its original intention was to provide a reliable and safe resting place for adventurers who went deep into the Moyi Forest.

However, with the increase in the number of adventurers, the Hild Fortress gradually became an economic center. Many merchants would come here to purchase some specialties of the Moyi Forest and Warcraft materials, which also brought a lot of tax revenue to the Golden Rose Family.

However, with the passage of time and the influx of adventurers, the number of monsters in the outskirts of the Moyi Forest is gradually decreasing.

However, the scarcity of monsters will also make the threat of monsters besieging the city no longer exist.

Now the only threat to the Principality in the Moyi Forest is the tin dragon. As long as it wants, it can easily attack almost all places in the western part of the Principality.

After all, dragons fly much faster than horses run.

But it is obvious that if such a thing really happens, it will not be Grand Duke Veronica and the golden dragon Vivian who will come to encircle it next time, but the dragon knight team of the Emerald Kingdom.

As the overlord of the southern part of the entire continent, the Emerald Kingdom has nearly 20 dragons, which guarantees the status of the Emerald Kingdom as the overlord of the southern part of the continent.

However, the number of dragon knights in the kingdom is a little less, only eight, and the remaining dozen dragons are raised in the dragon garden of the Emerald Valley in the capital.

In theory, Grand Duke Veronica can successfully establish a country, and most of the credit should be attributed to her identity as a royal family of emerald.

Otherwise, if only one dragon knight wanted to establish a kingdom on the border of the kingdom, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the Emerald Kingdom?

However, according to Krober's inference, Grand Duke Veronica should have the idea of ​​proving her own strength to the kingdom, otherwise she would not choose to deal with the tin dragon alone after encountering it.

Under normal circumstances, more than two dragon knights form a team to fight.

It's not that they can't beat it, but to prevent the wild dragon from escaping and causing more casualties. At the same time, there is also a sense of stability in it.

After all, dragon knights are too precious, and they are almost one in a million. For tasks like capturing or killing wild dragons, the Emerald Kingdom uses two dragon knights or one dragon knight plus a dragon to perform.

The success rate of execution is nearly 100%.

——

The march is long and boring. Looking around, there is only endless land.

The soldiers marched forward with heavy steps and silently, and their figures looked particularly lonely in the sun.

On both sides of the road, the dense woods are like a green ocean, but they can't bring a trace of vitality to this dull atmosphere.

Klober was following closely beside the Grand Duke, his nerves were tense to the extreme, and he dared not relax at all.

He was always highly alert, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, scanning all the movements around him, not missing any corner where the enemy might hide.

He held the hilt tightly in his hand, as if ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

There was no way, the other soldiers could be more casual, but he was under the eyes of the Grand Duke, and he could not show any slackness, otherwise it would give the Grand Duke a bad impression.

After all, leaders like serious and diligent subordinates.

As the team slowly moved forward, intelligence came from the scout team in front, saying that they had seen the outline of the Hilde Fortress, and it was expected that they would reach the destination of this trip in a short time.

Soon, everyone drove to the gate of the Hilde Fortress.

The main body of the Hilde Fortress was built of huge bluestone, and the city wall was tens of meters high, covered with watchtowers and turrets.

The gate of the fortress was made of solid iron and wood, and in front of the gate was a bottomless moat.

Inside the fortress, there are bustling streets and scattered houses.

Soldiers patrolled on the city wall. They were wearing heavy armor with different emblems. They were obviously elite soldiers under various nobles. They held sharp weapons and kept vigilant at all times.

Standing on the city wall, looking beyond the border, you can see a mysterious forest, that is the Moyi Forest.

This is the edge of the Golden Grand Duchy and the first line of defense against external threats.

The soldiers on the city wall had already discovered the traces of this large force. After verifying their identities, they hurriedly opened the city gate to welcome this main force into the fortress.

At this moment, the war really began.
