A dragon raised at birth

Page 199

But this fortress is not completely closed, it is still open to adventurers, allowing adventurers from all over the continent to enter this infamous dungeon.

So at this time Diablo can also see the adventurers passing by in front of him.Naturally, these adventurers couldn't find Diablo who observed them up close.

"According to your original instructions, my lord, I let go of many talented adventurers at the beginning, and gave them the capital to rise, and after they became strong, they also gained fame."

"There shouldn't be a need to deliberately let it go now, right?" Diablo was quite surprised to hear that the earth dragon still obeyed his orders.

"No need, the scale of the dungeon is now much larger than your original design."

Powerful monsters are equal to great wealth. As long as there are monsters, they will definitely attract adventurers who want to hunt them down. Even if they are dragons, there will be dragon slayers coming to hunt them down. Of course, most of them are five-color evil dragons. .

"I want to go there for a walk, will you come with me?"

"Please wait."

Under Diablo's watchful eyes, the rough surface of the puppet's body changed rapidly, and the metal from the depths of the earth condensed on his body, turning into a set of steel armor shining with the light of runes.

And under the cover of this set of excellent armor, the essence that is completely made of mud and rocks is completely covered up, and it looks like a well-trained and extremely rich heavy armored warrior.

"I will follow Diablo-sama like this and you will have no problem going out."

The earth dragon Kesentan who changed his face for the incarnation was very confident, and the changed appearance of the earth dragon immediately made the cloud dragon Vladis who was following Diablo ready to move.

"Diablo, what am I going to look like?"

Yunlong, who has been in the Dragon Realm for a long time, naturally wants to ask Diablo, a giant dragon who has been in the main material world for a long time.

"You don't need to change, just keep surrounding me like this!"

Diablo rolled his eyes, reached out to grope in his collection, picked out an inconspicuous wooden staff, and pretended to be a mage, as far as he was a glamorous nobleman, it seemed to be the case .

"gone."

Diablo took the lead and walked towards the exit of the dungeon, while Yunlong Furadis, who was expecting to be pierced by Diablo, followed.Very annoyed, it turned into a cloud of mist, surrounding Diablo's body, making his body appear misty.

So, Diablo took Kesenthal very naturally and blended into the crowd of adventurers leaving the dungeon, and then Diablo and Kesenthal were stopped by the soldiers guarding the fortress.

Because the outfits of the two of them are so eye-catching that it is difficult for the soldiers at the city gate to notice them. Although Diablo thinks his dress is very low-key, as a dragon, he has already left the human race For too long, the low-key in his eyes is completely different from the low-key in the eyes of humans.

"What?"

Diablo, whose figure was shrouded in mist, couldn't see his expression clearly, but the unhappiness in his tone was still felt by the soldiers who stopped him.

"Sorry, Your Excellency, I wasted a little time, please show your ID card!"

Although they are afraid of the mage in front of them, the eyes of the soldiers holding the spears are extremely firm. He is not one of those ordinary cities who only eat the waste that Naka asks from passing businessmen. They know very well that they have to face What is it.

"You suspect me?"

Diablo's tone sounded angry, but he was a little surprised that it wasn't what he expected.

"Diablo, what are you doing? You were spotted by humans just after you came out, can you do it?"

The muttering of Yunlong Furadis reached Diablo's ears, but Diablo didn't bother to pay attention to her.

"Sorry, Your Excellency, three years ago, there was a vicious incident in which a shapeshifter disguised as a human being sneaked into the city and wreaked havoc in the fortress, so please cooperate with the investigation!"

"What if I refuse!"

Of course, it was impossible for Diablo to cooperate. Just as he was considering whether to leave or make a move here, a familiar figure caught his eyes.

"Catherine!"

A spiritual thought floated towards the female general who was patrolling the city gate along the street. The blond hair fluttered, and the heroic female general was slightly taken aback, then directly threw off her entourage and rushed towards the gate of the fortress at a faster speed.

"Your Excellency Diablo, long time no see."

The arrival of the blond-haired and white-armored female general eased the tense atmosphere at the gate of the city. Seeing that the Marquis knew this strange and mysterious mage, the soldiers relaxed a little.

"Catherine, long time no see."

Diablo looked up at the kinsman who was galloping up to him riding a dragon beast, and his eyes suddenly showed admiration. The countess was more radiant and more energetic than when he left. Get ahead.

"what's going on?"

Catherine, who was already the real leader of the Dicroman collar, restrained her smile when facing Diablo, and her face became extremely cold.

"Your Excellency the Marquis, we previously suspected that this lord was disguised by a doppelganger..."

The soldiers guarding the city honestly confessed the reason why they stopped Diablo. The soldiers performed their duties conscientiously and naturally they will not be punished. Diablo is not a pedantic dragon, and Catherine is not a fatuous manager.

And after this little episode was dealt with, Diablo came to the castle where he was in power at the beginning. Compared with Cecil City, which had changed greatly, this castle was the only one that was consistent with his memory, and even more dilapidated. of the building.

"Are you so thrifty? You already have such a huge fortress, and the castle you actually live in hasn't been renovated yet."

When stepping into the increasingly dilapidated castle, Diablo couldn't help complaining, because this dilapidated castle seemed so insignificant compared with the increasingly prosperous Cecil City and the fortress that suppressed the underground city. It was so out of place, it was so shabby.

"No money, Lord Diablo."

The countess, who took off her helmet, showed a look of helplessness on her face.

"No money? You are already a marquis, and you still call me no money?"

Diablo noticed what the defenders called Catherine just now, and immediately laughed.

"What about the Marquis? It's just that the title has changed."

"What? Didn't the Grand Duke who promoted you give you a corresponding fief?"

"No, he let me fight by myself and gave me the right to develop."

"Haven't you always had this stuff?"

"Yeah, so, it's just that the title has changed."

"So stingy?"

"Maybe she noticed my abnormality!" Catherine sighed. In fact, as long as she investigates, she can find the changes in her body over the years, and these things cannot be concealed.

"Well, that's no wonder." Diablo touched his chin, "Where's Norton?"

"He's dealing with government affairs in the study."

"Well, let's go to the study. I can reshape his body now."

Like a master, Diablo walked through the dilapidated castle with ease, and found Earl Norton who was still in a ghost state.

When he first heard that he could be "resurrected", the depressed and unhappy Earl was overjoyed.

"Tell me about what has happened in these years! Oh, by the way, let me introduce you before I describe it. My most powerful striker, the dragon of the earth, Kesentaner. The dungeon below your territory builder and master."

These two parties can be called neighbors. After the dragons met each other, Diablo learned what happened to this land after he left.

Everything developed according to his original plan, and as he summoned one powerful dragon after another to the endless land, the Countess Catherine, who had been emptied, regained control of the territory.

Catherine, who regained power, did not indulge in this false power. She handed over everything in the territory to her husband who could do nothing, and devoted herself to practicing herself, tapping the dragon blood power in her body.

Then, the increasingly famous dungeon attracted a legendary archmage, and then everything changed.

In the Principality of Elvis, the Roman Territory of Dicroman was isolated and isolated, like an isolated island in the sea, but not completely, because normal material exchanges were still allowed.

Chapter 325 Immigrant Empire

"The archmage should have noticed our changes, so we are now completely isolated by the noble class in the country."

Speaking of this, Catherine showed a look of helplessness on her face. One of the greatest advantages of a noble with a long history is his connections that have been run for several generations, and now they are all gone.

"A herd of sheep isolates a lion!"

Diablo commented on the matter without thinking, which immediately made Catherine, who had broken through to the soul, smile with strength.

"As a lion, why do you need to care about the encouragement of those sheep? If you really care, then practice harder. When you become a legend, those who know you and are related to you Running up to you like a dog, begging for mercy."

"I have been working hard to practice and never slack off."

After being endowed with dragon's blood, Catherine, who had regained the joy of practice, spoke forcefully.

"En. By the way, why haven't you seen your children? Logically speaking, shouldn't they go back to China now?"

It seemed to be an inadvertent question, but in fact Diablo wanted to ask it a long time ago, and now he just took the opportunity to ask it.

"My lord, they don't want to come back."

Hearing that Diablo suddenly brought the topic up to their children, Earl Norton, who had been reduced to a ghost, suddenly showed bitterness on his face.

It's pitiful to say, he has been a ghost for so long, and his sons and daughters who are studying abroad don't know the news.

One is that as a father, he does not want to worry his children and disturb their studies.The second is that his children never thought of coming back during their study abroad, so they don't know his status.

"Don't want to come back? Why? If we remember correctly, they seem to have studied in the Parkington Empire!" Diablo pretended to be surprised.

"Be dazzled by the prosperity of the empire. After all, our Roman Territory is only located on the border of the Elvis Principality. It can't even compare with the capital, let alone a prosperous empire. It's normal for them not to want to come back."

Hearing Earl Norton say so implicitly, Catherine, who is a member of Diablo's family, has nothing to hide.

"It's not just that they don't want to come back, he also wants us to immigrate to the empire with the accumulation of the family for hundreds of years and live with them?"

"Then what do you think?"

Diablo narrowed his eyes, staring at the yin and yang couple in front of him.

"These two little bastards used my money to go to the empire. After gaining knowledge, they thought that the vision of a country noble like me was not as good as theirs, and that they could develop better in the empire.

But they never considered that in a place like the Empire, even if we put all our family savings for hundreds of years into it, we still wouldn't be able to make a splash. That place is not our home at all, and there is no place for us to stand. "

Seeing that his wife had spoken, Earl Norton had no scruples, and directly complained to Diablo about his team of children.

"I wrote a letter to ask them to come back to help the family develop the territory. In the letter, the two of them evaded in every possible way and were not happy. But when it comes to asking for money, they are confident."

"Hearing what you said, I feel that your education has failed."

Diablo naturally had no scruples when talking to them, saying whatever came to his mind.

"It has indeed failed. I have thought of giving up on them. No matter how poor Dicroman is, it is the hometown where they were born. What's the use of a person who doesn't love his hometown?"

Although what Diablo said was very ugly, Earl Norton recognized it with his nose.

"Maybe it's not that they don't love it, it's just that they are used to the superior material life of the empire."

Seeing that the couple seemed to have plans to open another trumpet, Diablo quickly dissuaded them.

The two people who seem to have obtained legal status in the Principality of Parkington, how can they just give up if they just give up, and now the Kingdom of Crystal Frost is in conflict with the Principality of Parkington, maybe they can take advantage of it one time.

……

The cold wind like a knife whistling in the sky, rolled up fine pieces of ice, and smashed them on people's faces. Even a warrior who has practiced fighting spirit, if he is a little slack, his face will be covered with red marks from the frost and snow .

"With this kind of weather, the Principality of Rodman probably won't organize any more attacks!"

A white-haired man stood on the city wall, ignoring the frost and snow, and looked into the distance. The violent snowstorm covered everything. Even if he had the blood of a crystal dragon and was not affected by ice and snow, he could not see dozens The view from miles away.

Surrounded by Fang Fengxue, the man on routine patrol walked down the city wall and returned to the house under the city wall after finding nothing abnormal. Then he saw a group of soldiers surrounded by a fire to keep warm.

Unlike him, who has been transformed and has Han Xin, the dragon descendant of the dragon blood, these humans are all human soldiers who were forcibly recruited by the queen and sent to the battlefield.

Its strength was pitifully weak, and Arthur felt that he could wipe out all these guys within a quarter of an hour with only one hand, and he would not suffer any harm.

"Boss Arthur, how's it going outside? Those savages shouldn't be attacking, right?"

Seeing Arthur returning from patrol, a soldier who was warming up turned his head and asked in a calm tone. He has stayed in this border fortress for several months, and he is considered a veteran who has lived to this day, and life and death are bearish.

"I didn't find any movement, but this kind of thing is uncertain. I have to send someone out to check every once in a while. Those barbarians, like us, have lived in the ice and snow for a long time. Even Blizzard can't stop their attack."

Arthur shook his head, his expression full of solemnity.With so many concerns, he doesn't want to die in such a ghostly place, and on the battlefield, caution is a necessary condition to increase the chance of survival.

"Damn, those savages, isn't it uncomfortable to huddle in front of your own stove in such a horrible weather, hugging your mother-in-law? You must fight, really."

Some soldiers couldn't help cursing when they heard that they were going to patrol in this kind of weather.

In fact, what they really want to scold is the group of large lizards that sent them to the front line. But those monsters have keen senses that humans can't understand at all. Once they hear what they say, the fate is beyond their imagination. Yes, so to scold and complain, the target can only be the enemy.

"Those barbarians probably don't want to fight, but they are too poor. I heard that because of our queen's founding of the country, many monster groups living in their country have moved to our country, causing them a great famine."

Soldiers with better news channels explained to their colleagues why the enemies they faced launched wars.

The reason is very simple and straightforward - I can't fill my stomach, so I have to fight.Consume populations in war that would be depleted in famine, while looting food that can feed more of your kind.

"So, as long as you give them food, they will retreat?"

"How can it be that simple? Almost all the countries around our kingdom have attacked us. Could it be that they all suffered from famine? The famine is just an introduction, and it is the Parkington Empire that really attacked our kingdom."

"Parkinton Empire, what else is there to fight? Just surrender, how can the kingdom fight against the empire?"

"If the empire really wanted to attack, then we would definitely not appear there, but the Parkington Empire cherishes its feathers, so it has become like this. We were caught on the battlefield to make up for it."
