Soul of Burning Steel

"The Light of Io (the name of the Fusion Star), one of the most valuable trophies my ancestors got from the Orc Khan, it is part of the royal family's illustrious achievements, and it also symbolizes the majesty of the royal family and the might of the empire , so it was decorated in the Holy Emblem Hall."

Knowing that his fusion heart had exploded, Israel's expression was heavy: "Even if Eagle sent the God of Life to perform the healing ceremony for me, I just borrowed it."

Since it was indeed his fault, Joshua cautiously kept silent at this time, and did not say much, and His Majesty the Emperor returned to normal after feeling a little bit.

"Although I said that, I also know that it is almost impossible to take back this kind of thing safe and sound."

Israel shook his head, and said in a very regrettable tone: "However, if the Church of the Seven Gods damaged it, I would have an excuse to ask for more compensation, but in the end it was you who blew it up for the safety of your life... Anyway, that's it."

His Majesty the Emperor knew that in the face of the almost endless army of devil-blooded dragons that crossed the border, the group in the abyss actually didn't have much choice. Detonating the Fusion Star was inevitable. As the ruler of the empire, Israel, His heart is not so small, and he will feel unhappy about something outside his body. Apart from feeling sorry for this long-standing family heirloom, the feeling just now was more of a gesture.

Joshua has this qualification.

So far, there is no need to say anything more. After confirming that the soldiers are in good condition, Israel is ready to leave the underground fortress. The dragon army has not yet retreated. The three legendary dragons confronted each other. Although the other party lacked the deadly weapon of the Ember Clay Sword, they were still extremely dangerous.

And just before leaving, he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, there is this."

Holding a lance in one hand, Israel shattered the space with the other, and the shattered fragments of the world surrounded his arms. Then he pulled something from the other side of the space and threw it in front of Joshua and the others. Israel had a strange expression on his face: "This should be your trophy. Although he took the initiative to find the holy mountain, neither Eagle nor I think it's better for you to handle it."

After finishing speaking, the legendary warrior walked away, the surrounding space was shattered, the faint blue door of time and space opened, and the whole person disappeared.

Looking away from the back of the ruler of the empire who was leaving freely, Joshua lowered his head and looked at the ground.

A pale, blue-haired 'elf' was slowly standing up from the ground covered in sawdust. His expression was a little bewildered, but at this moment he understood his current situation.

This elf, like all other elves, has a handsome face and a pair of light blue eyes that are like the sky, but if you look closely, you can find that they are the vertical pupils of a dragon. He looked up at the soldier, squeezed a smile on his face, then nodded softly: "Ah, hello..."

It sounds like you're about to cry.

"Hey, isn't this the blue dragon that we hacked half to death?"

"Yes, sister, is he still alive?"

After the Shenji siblings saw each other, they discussed in a low voice, but the voice was so clear that Heidu raised his head and looked at Lanlong after hearing it, his eyes were full of curiosity.

"Hello, Sularno." Nodding in the same way, the soldier touched the heads of Hotaru and Rin beside him, and told them to silence, "So, you have completely surrendered?"

With a glance, Joshua could tell the aura and characteristics of the opponent. This blue-haired elf was obviously the human form of the previous blue dragon Surarno, not to mention Yingying and Rin. I've seen it a few times. Freedom-loving blue dragons occasionally descend from the sky due to certain events, and take human form to roam the Dashou Continent. Their favorite appearance is this kind of elf bard, singing what they have seen and heard in the sky in front of everyone.

Surarno naturally completely surrendered - because of Hotaru and Rin, he was seriously injured and seriously injured, and there was no existence in the Dragon Legion that could display the healing ability of the sacred level. In order not to die so wrongly, the blue dragon only Can take the initiative to find the temple in the defense line of the holy mountain, reveal his identity and surrender.

[Wind Rider] Sularno's name is also considered well-known in the holy mountain. After several extremely strong men captured the formation and captured them in the underground prison, the priests also confirmed that the other party was captured by Joshua. Injured, the fact that he had no choice but to surrender. They stopped the bleeding of the blue dragon's wound, and locked it in the prison to wait for orders from higher levels. After all, this is a giant dragon of extreme intent. Whether it is to execute it or transform it into a fighting force on its own side, it is not a decision that they can make at this level. .

From the looks of it now, Joshua found that the decision-making power was probably in his hands.

So he sized up the blue dragon, but his extremely calm eyes made him tremble all over.

Surarno's surrender was not surprising. Apart from his injuries, it was impossible for him to return to the five-color dragon's camp because of his betrayal. Although the blue dragon does not know the location of Evian, all dragons will think that he leaked the identity, location and mission of the red dragon. Otherwise, how could Joshua come to the door so directly and send Evian Ang persecuted to death?

In a sense, in the eyes of the giant dragons, it was Sularno who destroyed the plan of the entire five-color dragon army, and he was the biggest sinful dragon.

At that time, the legendary dragon Ritia will be the first to hunt him down. At that time, although the continent is vast, there is no place for him to fly.

Confirming that the other party did not have any hostility, Joshua nodded. He waved Hotaru and Rin to sit aside and rest, and then muttered: "Suralno, now you can't go back to the dragon's camp, and you can't do it either." There is a way to walk freely on the mainland. So, are you going to stay in the holy mountain, or wait until the war is over and return to the empire with me?"

Soldiers have always been so straightforward, and Blue Dragon has lived for so many years, and has encountered many similar existences. He has long been used to this tone, so he immediately replied: "Go back to the empire with you."

This reply was simple and powerful, as if he had already made up his mind. Surarno knew that no matter how thoroughly he surrendered, the Holy Mountain, which had already been attacked by a mad dragon, would never truly accept a giant dragon that had invaded them. On the contrary, it was Joshua's side, and the blue dragon had no time to do so. He was beaten half to death by the soldiers without causing any losses at all. In this way, although it is embarrassing, as long as he shows his sincerity and loyalty, he will never be discriminated against in the empire.

And in Joshua's eyes, the blue dragon's system information had already begun to emerge, but the warrior didn't look carefully, and after roughly confirming that the opponent's camp had indeed changed from hostile to neutral, and there was even an option to recruit, he nodded and said : "Well, there are a group of young dragons that need to be taken care of in my territory, and I really need an adult dragon."

When he said this, Joshua turned his head and looked at the black dragon girl who was still lying on the bed. His expression froze for a moment, and then he sighed: "I was thinking too much... I can't expect her to do it." What."

When Sularno heard this, his face froze for a moment, and he asked cautiously, "Excuse me, Lord Earl, how many baby dragons are there?"

"Probably... more than ten or twenty." Joshua thought for a while, but couldn't determine the exact number of young dragons. He shrugged and said, "Besides, there should be some monster mounts. Don't worry about your work, it's not heavy, it's quite easy."

Twenty baby dragons? The kind of terrifying creature that can destroy an entire lair with only two ends, and can make the master of the dragon's lair nervously weakened if there are too many? Where did Joshua, a dragon slayer, find twenty baby dragons? !

Surarno didn't feel relaxed at all, his face was full of shock and surprise - since he was born, he has been flying and traveling all over the world, not to mention taking care of baby dragons, and he has never even met a female dragon. I have no experience at all. Blue Dragon originally planned to refuse this task that was too difficult for him, but after thinking about his current situation and the strength of the soldiers in front of him, he could only accept it with a bitter face: "Okay."

Just two words, with a bitter voice.

And a few days later, the other end of the world.

Northern Empire.

The latest battle report of the Far South Wild Dragon War has been spread throughout the southern fortress, the imperial capital, the northern land and any aristocratic territory with a little bit of strength.

The matter of Israel's meddling in the dragon's disaster has long been spread secretly and known by many nobles, so everyone is not surprised by the appearance of the ruler of the empire. However, in praising the emperor's invincibility, even the legendary dragon While being vulnerable, many keen people also noticed that there was another imperial man's name on this battle report.

His name is unexpectedly prominent, not even inferior to Israel.

—Joshua Van Radcliffe.

This name, any aristocrat who is a little bit enterprising, and is not living in the territory, knows it. As the youngest extreme power in history, many people have already regarded it as a benchmark for educating the children of the clan. "Earl Radcliffe was already an extremely strong man at the age of twenty-three, and you haven't even touched the golden barrier now." This sentence has long been a model sentence, and is reprimanded by most nobles Use it when you are a descendant.

Going deep into the abyss, fighting against the Dragon Legion head-on, the Seven Sacred Mountains did not hide anything, they recorded all the fighters' achievements, and then spread them out. Nowadays, some people are even surprised to calculate how many people Joshua killed in the holy mountain. The dragon, the result is that if the flying dragons and giant dragons affected by the aftermath are counted as the fighter's record, then he is well-deserved as the strongest dragon slayer in history.

More than a hundred giant dragons, tens of thousands of flying dragons, two extreme black dragons, one extreme red dragon, and captured an extreme blue dragon... This kind of record is unprecedented in the thousand-year history of the four major gathering places of human beings. There is nothing comparable to it. Even the ancestors of the Sky Dragon Knight Israel and the Diamond Royal Family have domesticated the dragon when its strength was weak, and then cultivated it to become a legend, which is not a serious record.

Saint Giorgios, the most famous dragon slayer in the Holy Mountain, just killed a giant dragon of extreme intent when he was young, and then defeated a legendary dragon head-on, and forced him to escape into the void. Dare to return to the world of Mycroft. Although it is powerful, it cannot be compared with the current record of fighters.

Although the news spread quickly, the time it appeared was too short, and the consequences were still fermenting, but there is no doubt that Joshua has indeed spread his reputation to the entire Mycroft continent this time. Except for the Northern Empire, the people of Xishan Many warlock kingdoms, major mage organizations and city-states in the eastern plains have also known the news. For this warrior who is almost certain to be able to advance to legend, any force will spare no effort and send people as much as possible to investigate and analyze , and some forces and organizations secretly targeting the Northern Empire are also on their backs, and they don't know whether they should take action now or continue to lurk and wait for the opportunity.

At the same time, in the main city of Moldavia, Miss Yiren with long dark blue hair was sitting on the soft velvet cushion of the lord's mansion, holding a book in her hand, and telling stories to the two little girls in front of her.

No. 3 was wearing a white gauze dress at this time, revealing her slender arms and calves. She read the contents of the book with a soft voice, and her eyes were as bright as blue stars.

In front of her, the two daughters of Verdani and Brandon were hugging pillows and cushions, listening to the young lady telling stories with great interest.

"...the eredar knew that the war was over, for him at least, but for some it was just beginning."

After taking a breath, the artificial intelligence closed the book in her hand, and after spending three whole afternoons, she finally finished speaking the long war memoir "Legend of the Wind". As the protagonist, Eredar, a half-elf who loves freedom and life, leaves his hometown and devotes himself to the southern swamp and the lizardmen's battlefield. While fighting the ferocious enemies, the half-elf gradually discovers the conspiracy behind the war... All in all, this is an extremely obscure memoir-style novel, and No. 3 himself found it a bit difficult to understand after reading it. It is really strange why these two little girls like such stories.

"Hey, isn't it gone?" On the side, a girl with long blond hair was lying on the ground, rolling and shouting in dissatisfaction, "Didn't it just start?"

"Fran, sister No. 3 said 'but for some people, it's just the beginning', not just the beginning." Beside the blond girl, there is a girl with short violet hair, and an older looking girl It is a majestic lesson: "You must listen carefully to other people's stories... Ah! What are you doing!"

Miss Artificial Intelligence looked at the little girls fighting in front of her, and couldn't help sighing in a very humane way.

Because there were rumors of prehistoric relics in the territory of Moldova, spellcasters and explorers from the entire northern part of the empire came in an endless stream. For the safety of the two sisters, the couple sent them to Moldavia again, and asked Nostradamus and No. 3 to take care of them.

Leah, the older sister, and Fran, the younger sister, have very different personalities. One is calm and the other is lively. But for some reason, they both like novels about wars and battles. Whether it’s memoirs or adventure diaries, they both listen with gusto. One wonders whether these two usually lonely little guys are listening to stories or enjoying the atmosphere of being told stories.

"Speak up."

The two sisters who were fighting had already sat back in their seats, arranging the messy clothes. The blonde girl tightened her headband, and asked curiously to No. 3, "Sister, what kind of stories do you like?"

"Me?" Miss Artificial Intelligence was not surprised by this question, the little girl's curiosity has always been like this, she thought for a while, then smiled and replied: "I like human stories...Of course, My favorite is adventure stories."

"What kind of adventure story?"

This time it was my sister's turn to ask questions, and the two sisters sat down beside No. 3, and No. 3 gently unfolded his magic position, and then hugged them both with projected arms: "I like any adventure... …especially……"

Especially, adventure stories that happened to someone far, far away.
