Lord of War

A team is slowly moving forward on the verdant field.

The size of the team is actually not big, just four people, but because there is an extra tall and mighty creature in the team, this journey makes the team look a bit eye-catching.

This creature is the mutated Emperor Dragon named Black Stone.

The emperor dragon is an evolutionary branch of the ground dragon with the blood of the black dragon, but only the mutated ground dragon whose blood concentration in the body exceeds 40% but not less than 50% can be transformed. Evolve into the emperor dragon when the power of the blood in jī**. And the one level below the Emperor Dragon is the Black Rock Ground Dragon, which is the sixth-level monster that Xiao En saw near Black Rock Town. As for the level higher than the Emperor Dragon, there are several types. All of them have a blood concentration of more than 50%, so these individual players will be collectively referred to as subspecies of black dragons.

There is actually no difference in body size between the Emperor Dragon and the Heiyan Landrunner. Under normal circumstances, the Emperor Dragon is slightly taller than the Heiyan Landrunner, but it is not much higher, so on the whole, the difference between the two is The difference is not huge. However, since the bloodline concentration of the Emperor Dragon can be higher than that of the Heiyan Dixing Dragon, then this proves that the Emperor Dragon must be stronger than the Heiyan Dixing Dragon. This strength is mainly reflected in its attack power and recovery. In terms of strength, as for defense and endurance, there is actually no difference between the Emperor Dragon and the Black Rock Earth Walker.

But this is just talking about the Emperor Dragon and Heiyan Ground Dragon that only mutate and evolve once.

Rui Na's Emperor Dragon, absolutely cannot be theoretically based on normal circumstances.

Although it is not uncommon for sub-dragon individuals to mutate twice, they usually hardly appear on sub-dragons whose bloodlines have already shown a dominant state. Normally speaking, the first mutation can be attributed to the awakening of the bloodline, but it is completely impossible to explain the second mutation in this way. This is equivalent to saying that a new species is being born—and in Under normal circumstances. After mutating once and awakening the bloodline, this kind of sub-dragon will basically move towards the path of evolution.

Like the Black Rock Land Walking Dragon that Xiao En met before, although its chance of success in the end is very low, but once it succeeds, it will transform into a real black dragon. Dragons that have successfully evolved like this are generally no longer called Warcraft, because they have completely surpassed the concept of Warcraft and have completely become legendary existences.

As for those individuals that have mutated more than twice, they are usually produced under certain unexpected circumstances. In fact, they can only be regarded as new types of sub-dragons, and their essence still does not depart from the category of Warcraft. And there are very few who can reach the level of eighth-level monsters.

However, the situation of Black Stone obviously cannot be speculated by any common sense known to Sean.

Although it underwent another mutation after its bloodline awakened and mutated into an Emperor Dragon, it was still an Emperor Dragon in essence, still on the path of evolution, and did not become a new kind of sub-dragon because of this. Variety.

Sean speculated that the problem must be in Andrew.

This can be seen from the fact that Andrew was able to give him a bottle of [Ancient Dragon Bloodline] special potion. So Sean actually had some doubts, did this mutated emperor dragon get the blood of the ancient dragon? if not. How could it become so huge?

At least as far as Sean knew. The shape of a real ancient dragon is twice that of a normal dragon.

And based on this theory, there is a reasonable explanation for Heishi's body size that is more than twice that of a normal walking dragon.

Heishi's height is more than three meters. Although he hasn't measured it carefully, Sean can be sure that it will never be less than three and a half meters. But other than that, in other respects, it is not much different from ordinary ground dragons, and its body width is also about half a meter. Its back is very flat, and there are no bone ridges or sharp edges, which also ensures that at least Rina will not have her butt blooming when she sits on it, and of course there is no need for saddles or the like.

Thanks to Blackstone. Sean, Rena, Cefanio, and Cecilia have not been harassed by anyone with no eyesight all the way, and even passers-by will choose to avoid it from a distance. Even though the residents of Void County and Black Swan County were already very familiar with Sean, the lord, they still didn't dare to approach the ferocious monster, and only greeted Sean from a distance.

As a result, Xiao En and others did not dare to stay in the villages and towns, so they could only make do with it in the wild.

Fortunately, the four people on this trip, Sean, Cecilia, and Rena were all mercenaries, while Cefanio was just an ordinary villager before being awakened by Esswintle. People from the church entangled and rested in the wild, so of course the four of them would not reject such things as sleeping in the wild.

Taking this opportunity, Sean discovered a very subtle place.

As a seventh-level monster, Black Stone is at the top even in the food chain, but it still appears very docile in front of Marshmallow. On the contrary, it always snorts towards Gulu, and its attitude is obviously full of dissatisfaction. Impatient and unhappy. Perhaps if it wasn't for the presence of marshmallows, it is estimated that Black Stone might still have a fierce fight with Gulu—of course, Sean is not optimistic about Black Stone for this kind of result, after all, the force field on Gulu's body is not a joke.

But in this way, Xiao En can be more sure that the black dragon blood in Heishi's body is definitely very strong.

Because in terms of beliefs, the black dragon is actually a kind of giant dragon that prefers chaos and evil. They have always been enemies with the silver dragon, which advocates order and light. Gulu, on the other hand, happens to have a very obvious power of order and light. This kind of power gives Sean the feeling that it is similar to the Lord of Morning Light. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that Black Stone and Gulu are not compatible with each other.

Sean even speculated whether Gulu might be the condensate of the power of light, that is, the purest light. It was really difficult for him to deduce it because of the lack of actual arguments. However, through a series of previous contacts, Sean found that Gulu was particularly afraid of Bess, the king of the undead. They can't do it, so Gulu is afraid. Of course, Gulu would find a way to stay away if he was in front of Andrew—although Sean couldn't understand the reason for this. But since Gulu met Andrew for the first time and came back after being taken away by Andrew for two or three days, once he felt Andrew's breath, Gulu would hide as far away as possible.

Intuition told Sean that Andrew obviously knew Gulu's identity and origin, but no matter what Sean asked, Andrew just smiled.

But the real magic is actually the cotton candy.

This little guy has been staying in the Black Swan Castle for a while, eating and sleeping well. Later, after the war broke out, he hadn't seen him for more than half a year. Now this guy is almost as big as an adult lion. It's just that it is obviously still in a state of development, because it still has white fluff on its body. It doesn't have black scales like its mother, and even has a ring of sideburns around its head, which looks like a snow-white lion.

However, the tail of the marshmallow started to become firm and hard, and the black reef stone that ordinary weapons could only leave shallow marks broke into two pieces under the sweep of the marshmallow tail. And in terms of speed. Marshmallow can also catch up to the cheetah, and even kill it easily with only its sharp claws and teeth. Although the cheetah is only a third-level monster known for its speed. But this can also prove from the side that the current cotton candy already has the strength of a third-level monster.

Of course, it wasn't this that really made Sean feel miraculous, but that Marshmallow, as a third-level monster, could show the boss' spectrum in front of Black Stone. You must know that apart from Rina, neither Sean, Cecilia, nor Cephaneo can get too close to Black Stone, although for Rina's sake, Black Stone will not resist the approach of Sean and others , but if he wanted to ride the Black Stone or touch the Black Stone, this mutated emperor dragon would show very obvious resistance.

But the trip of nearly a month has come down. Marshmallow, however, relied on Heishi's body the whole time, and never got down and walked by himself. And the idiot Heishi has been following Marshmallow all the time, even thinking that letting Marshmallow sleep on him is a very honorable thing.

Sean can only say that "your circle is really messed up" about these things in the World of Warcraft circle.

But in the end. A group of four people brought two magical beasts and an unknown creature, and they arrived at the Tonis Fortress without any danger.

This glorious fortress once blocked a war that might almost destroy the country for the Principality of Ryan in the past-although it is not in this world, its importance is also conceivable. Of course, for this world, Tonis Fortress is a huge war fortress that Asuna spent countless efforts to build, although now because of the conquest of the Darbion Kingdom, this fortress has lost its due value, but it is impossible to say that Asuna would abandon this fortress because of this, because for Asuna, this is her real home.

However, due to political considerations in the current situation, the Ryan royal family will certainly not allow such a fortress that can be said to be choked by the throat to be out of their control.

Therefore, taking advantage of the complete victory of the invasion of the Dabion Kingdom this time, Asuna was pushed down as the master of this fortress by the Ryan royal family.

Now the new commander of this fortress is a marquis who has never had any reputation and record in the country before, and many people don't even know where the new Marquis of Tonys came from. The outside world even speculates that if it wasn't for the fact that the former owner of Fort Tonis was also a Marquis, so this territory would not be able to match without the status of a Marquis, I am afraid that any cat or dog could become the owner of this fortress.

Because everyone knows that this fortress belongs to the Marquis in name, but in fact it is firmly controlled by the Ryan royal family.

Of course, this can't stop other nobles from envying and hating the marquis at all.

After all, from now on, the marquis can live a life of drunkenness and dreams, and all his expenses and expenses will be paid by the royal family. However, as a price, he does not have any autonomy regarding all administrative orders of this fortress, and even the guard responsible for its security only allows a hundred people. Other issues including city defense, security patrols, etc. are all handled by Ryan Seventh. The Legion is responsible.

Sean already knew about the current information about Fortress Tonis. So he also knows that this so-called Seventh Legion is already an old acquaintance of his in a sense. It was not easy to live in Tonis Fortress for a long time, until Asuna left the fortress. His days are just a little later.

However, shortly thereafter, because of its proximity to the front line, it was directly called by Marquis Devin Sodel Shab. Later, in the Northwest Theater, the loss of the Seventh Army was also the same. Extremely grim. But after that, the role of having a backstage and being backstage, having a background and not having a background was extremely prominent, because the Seventh Army, which was only loyal to the royal family, became the first army to be filled immediately after the war, and even Even the legion commander was promoted to Marquis of Real Power because of this.

When Sean and the others arrived, there were already three long queues lined up at the gate of Tonis Fortress.

There is a wooden fence between each team, and there are guards wearing the costumes of the Seventh Legion patrolling around. So the actual situation is more orderly than the appearance, and there is no chaos. However, the sharp-eyed Sean still keenly noticed that the Tonis Fortress had opened up a special passage, which was surrounded by fences and horses, and was fixed with nails. Obviously, it had been arranged for more than a day or two. In terms of specifications and settings, Sean can be sure that this is a channel specially built for nobles or those rich and powerful people.

There is also a passage for people inside the fortress to leave. But compared to the excitement of entering the fortress. This road seemed extremely deserted, with few people walking around.

But if you think about it carefully, you will understand.

After all, now that the Principality of Ryan is about to be upgraded to a kingdom, this kind of event that can be said to be universally celebrated will inevitably last for several months, so the closer it is to a prosperous city or territory such as the royal capital, the more lively it will be, with business opportunities There will be a lot more. Therefore, there must be countless streams of people flocking to these places from all directions. In addition, the Kingdom of Dabion, as the country with the most nobles in the southern continent, if they want to maintain or enjoy the status and privileges of nobles after the war, then they must get the nod of the Lane royal family. Therefore, these people are the real crowd who must pass through the Fortress of Tonis this time.

Judging from the current entry fee of one silver coin for everyone passing through the Tonis Fortress, the income of the Tonis Fortress must be at least 300 gold coins just for the crowd flow that Sean saw today. If this situation lasted for a month, Tonys Fortress could at least bring in tax revenue of nearly ten thousand gold coins, and all of this was just Sean's conservative estimate.

However, following the appearance of Xiao En and others, there was a commotion and panic-like exclamations in the crowd.

The image of Black Stone is really too prominent.

Sean could only smile wryly at this, and then chose to stay away from the crowd as much as possible, and walked through the passage specially opened for nobles.

It's just that before Xiao En and the others walked over, a dozen soldiers of the Seventh Legion had already surrounded them. The first time they saw Sean and the others, they even raised their guns and opened a In the military formation, this hostile attitude was vividly displayed.

Sean frowned quickly.

At the beginning, Heishi was just a little suspicious of the other party's behavior, but after feeling Rina's dissatisfaction, the mutated emperor dragon immediately let out a menacing roar. The Emperor Dragon, its threatening roar naturally carries a touch of dragon power. Although the effect is not as good as that of the giant dragon, it can directly weaken the opponent's overall attributes by more than 50%, but it can weaken as much as Black Stone. A twenty percent or so is fine.

The crowd standing relatively close screamed in panic.

This is the side effect of Longwei.

The real Longwei, in addition to the effect of weakening all attributes of the opponent, will also have negative emotions such as fear and confusion. However, ordinary sub-dragons do not have this ability. Only those high-level sub-dragon species with relatively high blood concentration will have this special effect. Therefore, if you want to deal with Longwei, you naturally need the barrier protection of priests, priests or magicians to bless the combat spirit, or directly form an army with relatively strong combat effectiveness or strong self-confidence to resist. Part of nature is completely unstoppable.

So after Black Stone let out a roar, the originally fairly orderly crowd immediately broke up screaming, and one of the little girls was even frightened and ran straight to the exclusive road specially provided for the nobles.

Just at this time, a luxuriously decorated carriage is suddenly galloping up.

The driver who drove the car seemed to be in a real hurry, so he didn't pay attention to the confrontation between Sean and the others who were a short distance away from the exclusive road and the Seventh Legion. Under such circumstances, the little girl suddenly ran onto this road, which was equivalent to hitting the carriage by herself. With the speed of the carriage, it was impossible for the little girl to survive.

"Marshmallow!" Sean snorted, "Go save that child!"

Marshmallow, who had been lazily lying on Heishi's body, stood up reluctantly, and the next moment, it galloped out like a bolt of white lightning.

The crowd didn't have time to see the situation clearly, the carriage was already galloping past, and finally stopped after running forward for more than ten meters. Looking at this scene, a woman in the crowd fainted immediately, if it wasn't for her If there was a man supporting her, the woman would probably fall to the ground directly. However, when the carriage stopped, the driver got out of the carriage in a panic, and immediately ran to the back of the carriage. When he saw that there was no trace of blood on the ground and the little girl who was still in shock and looked dazed, his expression changed. Only then did he relax a little.

Marshmallow gently put the little girl in her mouth on the ground, and the little girl cried out with a whoosh, but the annoyed Marshmallow turned and left with a look of boredom, and trotted back to Cecilia By his side, he rubbed against Cecilia as if asking for credit. The latter patted Marshmallow's head with a smile on his face, and then stroked it a few times before Marshmallow jumped back to Heishi's body contentedly, and yawned lazily, but he didn't continue to sleep, but He stared unkindly at the soldiers of the Seventh Legion who were pointing their guns at Sean and the others.

As a result, the soldiers of the Seventh Legion looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do.

When they ran out, they just subconsciously regarded Xiao En and the others as dangerous people, but until now the other party did not make a move, but saved a civilian instead, which made them a little embarrassed. But if they withdraw their guns at this time, then they will be a little embarrassed, but if they want to continue to fight against each other, after seeing that the opponent is just two pets, they are already so extraordinary, how can they have the courage to fight.

Sean watched the man put down the woman beside him, then ran over to pick up the little girl, with a happy and excited look on his face, and then looked at the carriage again. At this time, the driver of the carriage was no longer there. After throwing a small bag of money to the man, he drove the carriage again to the Fortress of Tonis. Undoubtedly, they belonged to the nobles. It was really rare to be able to stop and check and throw a bag of money as compensation. Otherwise, it would not be too much to crush the civilians to death with the pride of the nobles.

So Xiao En looked at the soldiers blocking the way again, and his voice was a little low and majestic: "Get out of the way, I don't care about your ignorance just now."

Several guards looked at each other, and after a short silence, the leading officer finally turned slightly sideways.

But at this moment, a roar suddenly fell from the sky: "What are you doing! Facing such dangerous people, why don't you hurry up and arrest them!"

Hearing the roar, Sean looked sideways. Although the person shouting was still a little far away from his side, he could still see the other person's appearance with Sean's eyesight, and behind him were dozens of Seventh The soldiers of the legion came running, obviously hearing that there was a false alarm here, so they rushed to bring reinforcements. It's just that Xiao En was a little unhappy to treat him as a dangerous person before he understood the situation clearly.

But thinking of what the other party had done in the past, Sean could only shrug his shoulders helplessly for this person who made random conclusions before he understood the situation clearly. Because even he didn't expect that he would meet an old acquaintance so soon after returning for the first time after leaving Fort Tonis for so long. (To be continued..)
