Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

"Oh, don't look like that. What's wrong with coming out with me for a walk? What's the fun of staying in the dragon's nest all the time?"

On the airship that shuttled between the floating rooms, the lord's wife, surrounded by elemental light, teased the little golden dragon who was not in a good mood.

"Are you out for a stroll?"

Noah's mood was not good at all at the moment, because he could tell from the blinding equipment on this foster mother.

The staff in her hand was inlaid with four perfect quality gems, and mysterious runes flashed from time to time. The glittering robe solidified countless defensive spells. The necklace hanging on the slender neck and the magic ring on the green jade finger were all enough to make the golden dragon envious, but this kind of dress did not look like a stroll.

Not to mention the airship under their feet, there were eighteen magic cannons on the surface alone, and the rest of the heavy crossbows and bed crossbows were even more numerous.

Among the crew members on board, there are ten gold knights from the pioneering knights, and a larger number of silver knights and attendants, who can also be counted as combatants, and their number has exceeded 100.

Judging from Noah's perspective, the firepower and armament of this airship are enough to launch a small war and destroy most of the earldoms in the kingdom in a short time.

Pulling out such a battle, the adoptive mother who forced Noah to go out told him that she was just going out for a walk, who would believe this?

"Of course, after Cassius became the Grand Duke, the affairs he and I were responsible for were completely swapped. I was responsible for what he originally needed to do..."

Feeling the uneasiness in Noah, Selena had to explain.

After Cassius was promoted to a legend, because of the change in his status, he could no longer do anything as casually as before, and had to think carefully, so some things could only be done by Selena, as his wife.

"Don't be nervous, it's nothing. We are not going to start a war, and I will not take you to the battlefield. I will just take you to visit a dwarf tribe."

"Really?"

Noah's eyes were hesitant. It was hard to say that this was a friendly visit with all the armed and murderous people.

"That dwarf tribe is in the territory nominally ruled by Cassius. We will not leave the dukedom. There is no creature in the territory that dares to have malice towards the Augustus family."

"That's good."

Noah breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that after Cassius was promoted to legend, he triggered a super-large beast tide, which affected a range of thousands of miles.

The direction of the beast tide is naturally away from the human territory. This is a beast tide that spreads outward. A large number of giant beasts and monster clans with a little wisdom chose to migrate the moment they felt the legendary breath of humans, which caused a lot of disasters, but it has nothing to do with humans.

Therefore, there is indeed no intelligent race that has malice towards them in the territory of the Augustus family, but it is hard to say.

"What's going on with this dwarf tribe?"

Noah asked for details.

He wanted to be a home dragon and not go anywhere. After all, there were many options for him to kill time. However, his adoptive mother couldn't stand his closed life, so she forced him out.

"This dwarf belongs to the mountain dwarves. They didn't have much communication with us. However, the mountain range where they live happened to be designated by Cassius. This visit is to clarify the Augustus family's right to rule over them."

Selena said lightly, but Noah could feel the iron blood in his adoptive mother's tone, which was the strength and tyranny of the pioneering nobles.

The territories of the pioneering nobles were all killed with swords and knives. It was precisely because of this that these nobles didn't care about the royal family's rewards. Even if they were given more land, they could only take it back with swords and knives.

"What if these mountain dwarves don't want to be ruled?"

"I allow them to migrate, but this is the last tolerance."

Selena glanced at the golden dragon and said in a calm tone.

If the dwarves are unwilling to surrender and migrate, the result is obvious. The Duke family, which has a legend, will not allow such an independent force to exist in their territory.

Even if this land was not owned by the Augustus family before, but was managed by the mountain dwarves for hundreds of years, this is not the reason for the mountain dwarves to choose to fight.

"I hope these dwarves can be smarter."

"I hope so."

The lord's wife looked at Noah with an obscure look.

The 80-meter-long airship broke through the clouds and began to slowly descend. It brought great pressure to the dwarf city built in the mountains below.

It is worth mentioning that this creation with magical aura lingering all over the body did not cost the Augustus family a copper coin, because it was a gift from the True Spirit Tower in the east of the continent to Cassius to congratulate him on his promotion to legend.

Many of the magic accessories on the lord's wife came from this. It is no exaggeration to say that the gifts given by various forces after Cassius was promoted to legend alone are better than the Augustus family's pioneering accumulation in the past hundreds of years.

"Is this a dwarf tribe?"

The young dragon stuck his head out of the side of the ship and saw a city built in the mountains, with solid rock as the foundation and copper as the foundation. It might be called a fortress, or a fortress would be more appropriate.

Looking at the trestle bridge leading to the outside world and the winding paths carved out along the mountain, it is clear that this is a city that is absolutely impossible to capture from the ground.

"There must be more than 10,000 dwarves here."

"Does it make any difference to us?"

The airship landed in the square of the dwarf city. There were already hundreds of dwarf soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding war hammers or axes waiting in line, and a murderous atmosphere was quietly spreading.

But even so, Selina still raised her hand to remove the defense array of the airship. When the magic shield disappeared, the hot air mixed with the smell of metal suddenly hit her face.

The knights on the ship began to gather, and the dwarves below began to get restless, but it was not an extreme behavior, but whispering. Noah could clearly feel that most of the dwarves' eyes were focused on him.

Surprise, amazement, unbelievable, at a loss

When the strange atmosphere began to spread in the dwarf city, a square-statured dwarf with dark gray skin, thick beard and hair walked out of the rugged style of the towering palace.

He swept the square with his sharp eyes, and the dwarves' restlessness gradually subsided in an instant. However, when he saw the golden dragon soaring on the bow, his expression also changed.

"Noble son of the golden dragon, may the flame be with you. Please allow me, Elken Bronzebeard, the ruler of Ironforge, the son favored by the mountains, to pay you the highest respect and greetings."
